Over the weekend I have had time to reflect on my experience in drawing from live models. As tricky as most of the techniques may have been, I felt a strong sense of improvement over the three hour period. Immediately, I was uneasy about starting right from contour into life gestures for many reasons. Unprepared as I was, I did notice the mark making became easier and more precise with each session. Along with a slight improvement, I noticed a wave of calm begin to percolate towards the last half hour. This is a meditative state I hope to achieve upon entering class and hopefully through out my entire day. I believe that a study of anatomy will defiantly help engrain a better understanding of the human form, which will carry on into my work.
