More charcoal drawings - Drawing class



So in this first drawing from my Friday drawing class, we did a mix of compressed charcoal and basic charcoal sticks 

With this piece, we had to push against the darker areas harder than we'd usually do to get the charcoal to really blend and show tonal variation.  We had a model in who did different poses and in this one we have her lying on the bed.  This was the view I drew from.


In this second piece(this was actually the first drawing we began with) we had the model do different poses within the room. Though we were not aware at the time, the model was actually telling a story through her actions and positions within the space. 

As you can see, she starts off in a sleeping position and ends up on the couch in the last scene and a new set of legs appear, suggesting that someone else has entered the room.  Also in the last three frames, we did a bit of a reverse. 

In the room, for the last three frames we would darken the lighter bits and leave the darker bits light. I'll leave you to look at the two pictures now.  See you next post
