Final Post

This year i learned a lot in life drawing, ore than i thought that i did looking back at my old gesture drawings. I was told in a portfolio review recently that i mostly seemed to just care for the outline and not really pay attention to the 3D form. I learned more about contour than i thought i would. Learning how to use ink washes was a challenge for me for me to get at first, but after experimenting and spending some time just working with it, i got the hang of it. One of the things that i did learn is that i do not much care for charcoal, its too dirty and destroys newsprint after it's been erased more than once. Line quality became important i realized to create more depth in the images than just by making the shapes.

I have greatly improved on my gesture drawings that i did before, my later gesture drawing were mostly about the form proportions and and the the perspective of the models. This lead to me getting much more accurate drawing because i had everything the right size. I feel my conch's improved greatly over the semester, my last conch was definitely my favorite, and the most moody in my opinion. The one thing that i do wish is that we had more models toward the end of the semester, it felt as if as we started to learn the whole body, we had no one to practice on. The other thing, is i think that we should have more times where we just work for an hour or so in class on the model, than we can check it more fequently and we don't spend an entire class on it.

I ended up having a lot of fun in this class, i liked the drawings that i made in it, and i learned how to study humans much better. I will be able to take my understanding of 3D forms and human proportions (which are awesome proportions) and incorporate them into my Design sketches and my drawings later in life.

Just as a note, i did put a few more gesture drawings on, because i went through several stages and wanted to show my learning as i got better.
