The Return of Figure Drawing
I am so happy to say that the figure drawing sessions at CCA/ Illustration have resumed. One can never over value the power of drawing from life. In this particular instance I made three 20 minute drawings, submitted here for your perusal.
The following image was cobbled together in photoshop, just to give a sense of the page. While the patchwork of scans isn’t the greatest, this image is only to give a sense of the whole page.
Prior to the drawing session, earlier in the day, I was in conversation with a friend regarding the work of Kent Williams. While we both agreed that there is some merit to doing straight master studies from an admired artist, that in the end that is only an exercise in seeing. While we both professed a love of his work, we both also agreed that there was already a Kent Williams in the world and that there really isn’t a need for a second. Thus we were encouraged to follow our own paths. As my friend succinctly put it, “there is enough room here for all of us.”
