Drawing Class Insite

Life Drawing in a nut sell for me so far is learning what the different muscles and bones look like for when we are drawing models we can have an easier time understanding why different curves curve the way they do. We also really go in- depth into learning about perspective and how it really helps make drawings realistic and pop. I really enjoy working on perspective and different shading skills to make muscles and different curves on the human body pop in the daily model drawings. 
When thinking about other things that i want to work on or getting better at in the nezt few weeks of the semester left would be things like better drawings skills. I can draw the models prety good, but I want to be able to look at my drawings at the end of the class and be like wow that really dose look like him/ hers body. Another thing that I want to work on would be finding the hard spots of the human body and drawing it well.

what will help you get your drawings more "like" the actual model is 1)exaggerating unique characteristics of that model [ashley's short, muscular stature and extreme poses], and 2)looking more carefully, which probably means more slowly--we will continue to lengthen poses dramatically in the next few weeks up to 2 - 3 hours per drawing. this should help.
