Life Drawing!

They've got weekly life drawing sessions pretty much everywhere, if you look hard enough. But the good thing about AIB's life drawing is that it's for animators. As in, they organise it. Which is cool. But the better thing about AIB's life drawing is free paper and drawing implements!! How can I pass that up, when MICA charges to walk into the school store? As Ariyana can tell you, I'm a whiz at going to life drawing every week,* so the only thing stopping me is a 45 minute wait for the bus home afterward. Ouch... Or "brrr," rather.

Anyway - here's some of the highlights. I've never worked with chalk on black paper, so that was fun. The first years also have a life drawing requirement every Friday; the graphite ones are from that session.

Apologies for the bad quality. It's pretty much impossible to take a good photograph of a drawing. At least with my camera. Click for larger images. Oh yes, the little numbers (as good art students could probably figure out) are the length of the pose.

* Okay, maybe not "Life Drawing," but finding naked people? Sure.
