Frustration

This was the third drawing I made at my life drawing class - hence the no. 3 and it was created from a sense of deep frustration. I don't know why but I started the session with no real energy and this was revealed in the drawings No. 1 & 2. By the time I got to number 3 I was so frustrated that I just had to let it out and this is the result. I actually find the drawing very interesting and have started to think I should let my frustrations out more often...maybe maybe not.

The whole life drawing process has developed my artistic skills greatly, this is in part a reaction to the need to create a better drawing than the last one and also the competitive nature of a class environment. No matter how much you might try not to you always take a peak at the other members work and this makes you want to improve - well it does me but I am not sure if that is the case with other people.

Old man

I'm taking my time over this one - slowly building up the layers of shade and detail and trying to resolve the many issues involved. It's a good start and thankfully it has moved away from looking like Einstein in the nude. Perhaps it has a touch of Rodin? Maybe but I don't think any of Rodin's masterpieces had pieced nipples!
