Life drawing offers exactly what it proclaims. It forces you to think in three dimensions and challenges you in a way that copying from a photograph can't. Bony landmarks and muscle detail are missing in many photographs but most importantly, so is an "attitude" - a slouch, a lean, where the weight is placed and the ability to walk around the model and observe, observe, observe. In working from a photograph, distortion from a camera lens, a predetermined composition and heavy retouching are always part of the real picture.
Come draw from Life, every Monday night from 7:30-10:00 pm at Dragonfly Yoga Studio.
Sarah will be posing for us on Monday, Feb. 24th.

How right you are Susan. There is no substitute for working from a live model. Thanks for making it possible.
