Today we had our first life drawing workshop with Phil. At the start I found it really hard to get to grips with the way of drawing that he was teaching, which was ‘draw what you see, not what you know.’ We also did some 10 second gesture drawings with ink which I enjoyed more and found a lot easier too do as I felt like there was less pressure because of the short amount of time we had. Here are some my drawings from todays workshop – an upside down drawing from a magazine, a 10 minute blind drawing and some ink gestures.
