Artist's Comment: Most
of the charcoal drawings in this gallery were done during the
afternoon drawing session. It's a single pose for two and a half
hours with breaks after every twenty minutes. I can afford to
take my time and put in more details in the drawing. I'll spend
the first twenty minutes mapping out the drawing and making sure
everything was drawn right, because after the model takes a break
and tries to get back to the same pose, she would have shifted
around slightly. If I had drawn everything in place beforehand
the only thing I have to worry about are the shadows and tones.
They would have shifted slightly, but those can easily be compensated.
The drawing may get more messed up if I try to redraw or make
corrections according to how the model sits this time around.
You can see on drawing #3 how I tried to do a change on the neck
line and ended up making it look like a scar. |
