Today we went to the National Gallery to draw real people not a model.
In order to complete each drawing I had to forget about the details and draw the whole figure using just few lines of action. I found it quite difficult to draw these people, as they were instantly moving. After about half an hour of drawing I wasn't happy with my drawings and got quite bored as each person had a similar pose. But I kept on drawing and soon my drawing got much better and I've started noticing that each person is different and tellsa different story. I've started to use curves rather than straight lines and the differeneces between each person became much more noticable. I've also discovered that drawings have a lot more power if I drew feet of my models. Because most of the time the feet carry the most of the weight.
