Been going to local figure drawing sessions lately. There’s a local art studio here in Kingston that’s been kind enough to host monthly figure drawing sessions, and I’ve made it a point of going. Just got back from doing it a little while ago. Feeling recharged 🙂
It’s been fun to work from a live model again. Figure drawing is like the best drawing exercise. When I was in art school I always felt like I made my biggest jumps when I was doing a lot of live figure drawing. and like most things when you’re young, I totally took it for granted.
now that I’m old, it’s easy to fall into my patterns and. its nice to be able to just sort of draw for drawing’s sake, experiment and play around and take chances I might not if I was working alone in my studio.
I’ll bring a bunch of different stuff, lots of different pencils, and colored pencils, nupastels, I’ve brought acrylic paints, and as always the trusty old iPad.
The results? Mixed. I’m definitely out of practice. Figure drawing is sort of its own thing, I’ve been a way from it for so long that some nights I really feel the rust. But I’m trying.
Hope they keep doing these since it’s crazy close to my house and they book good experienced models.
Here are some random figures from this year in no particular order:
Thanks for sharing these Justin. What Ipad (and pen) do you use?
I agree that it is important for artists to keep up their life drawing skills. Your examples look excellent. I completely understand the feeling of being rusty if you have not been drawing the figure for a while, as I have experienced that many times. Cool that you are experimenting with various media as part of the process. It is also great that your local studio is offering themed clothed sessions, as drawing the clothed figure is especially challenging. I live in Los Angeles, and while there are many opportunities for figure drawing workshops here, unfortunately very few offer anything but nude only.
these are lovely Justin, I always look forward to your posts here. They always feel candid and intimate in a way that gets me in touch with my own artistic journey. Hopefully they do keep these going, cause I wanna see more of your figure drawings!
