Review Week 6

This week we were given our portrait assignment. We are drawing the faces of our classmates for the next three drawings. Each person from the group will model one day and further drawing time to finish the projects must be arranged outside of class. Tuesday was a practice day and a refresher of the facial features. We focused on drawing the eyes nose mouth and ears to bring back some of the structural tricks we learned in life drawing I. A lot of the techniques came back to me instantly while I was drawing my classmate. I tried to practice putting the features together, but I always seen to start too large and the portrait ends up getting cropped. I need to pay special attention to this when I begin my drawings next week. Thursday we reviewed the neck and hair and took a little trip to penco to get supplies for the final drawings. With the time that it took to get the materials and the lecture, we were left little time to start the drawings. I am eager to get started on Monday! I am hopeful that my drawings will turn out well. I think they will be a nice addition to my portfolio since we didn't spend much time drawing portraits in life drawing I.
