yesterday’s life drawing session was different for 2 reasons, it was a male model and he was very big.  You could see very little of the underlying structure of the body and because of the amount of flesh from the stomach, everything seem to take on a weird. perspective.  In one pose a leg I though was pointing straight at me and which I was having difficulties with, was actually slightly bend. I only became aware of this when I was looking around the room after the pose. The longest poses were 30 mins unlike our normal 40- 45 mins .   It was an interesting session but I will be glad to get back to the slender framed models we normally have.  I have put up all the drawings as it good to see all the horrible mistakes.

 

the shortest pose 20 mins and the most successful.

the least successful drawing although I like the bulk of the stomach.

the legs are totally disconnected 😦

His body was covered in tattoos so the blue of the shoulder and on top of the thigh were my indications of the tats.
