Creative Exchange Week - Live Drawing

This workshop was all about practising the core of anatomy and live drawing. The drawings were set into segments of short amounts of time for each poses forcing us to think quickly and sketch fast. This didn't allow us time to get hung up on smaller details and focus on frame, proportions and shape first and foremost. We used our own pencils,charcoal and graphite as a measure to determine the correct lengths and heights.

This was my first time ever doing live drawing and I saw a major benefit in it for my traditional drawing skills. I plan on doing some more group live drawing sessions within my circle of friends to continue to develop my skills.
