On this day we spent time in siolence drawing either full or sections of Skeletons in certain poses from the angle we had our easels. It was the first observational drawing of the course under these conditions with spotlights and greater concentration. The images below are of my drawing, i struggled to see much detail as i didn't have my glasses causing me headache and possibly overworking areas of the drawing making it look worse but i still found it enjoyable and wasn't to upset with the outcome of my work.
We used measuring techniques for these drawings and attempted using curved strokes of the pencil to bring a 3 diminutional element to the drawing rather than flat block shading. Next time in observational drawing i am going to focus more on not over working areas and focus on giving rounded features a spherical look on the paper instead of appearing flat.
After doing this, i think i would really enjoy life drawing every monday because i did enjoy this excercise and life drawing will be better purely because it's a new experience i've not tried before and it's a living model rather than a skeleton, therefore it litterally presents me with more life to transfer and express in my drawing.
