Figure Drawing

I have been missing figure drawing for a long time. Back in Madrid, I had Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday practice with model, and I could also go to The Circulo de Bellas Artes, which had daily poses as well. Oh well..

I discovered www.quickposes.com and although it's not the same, it is a very gratifying experience. You can adjust the times between poses, and it's got a very large collection. Here's a selection of the practise I've been putting out last months.

These are about 30 seconds to 2 mins.

The next one took about 30 minutes. My self-portrait was about 1 hour, greyscale and colour all.

The next was a colour practise. This took longer! I didn't check the time, but let's say 2 or 3 hours.
