After an embarrassingly long hiatus, I've stuck my toe back into the life drawing pool. Its been, in all honesty, very frustrating. But I know I won't improve by not going, so...there's that double-negative. Last night's was the first session where I broke out the ol' charcoal and newsprint, and I finally felt less hopeless. I didn't make any drawings that worked as a whole, but I was at least a stroke or two I felt confident about. (Oh, and those diagonally shadows across each drawing here are cast by my arm taking the photo. Charcoal is too messy to put on my scanner, and I don't like any of these enough to bother with fixative.)

Neat!
I've recently returned to figure drawing myself. I think its help bring up to speed, but I've been reluctant to post much of since I don't know that it tells much of a story, plus I'm don't think I should put up too much unpolished work or risk losing my "professional" image.
