portrait practice
This semester I started practicing drawing people. I was very intimidated at first because I had never really drawn people and to do it in front of other people made me nervous but a group of art students got together with one of the professors and set up a two hour session once a week for a model to come in and pose for us. It took a while for me to build up the courage to actually draw with these people but eventually I decided to take advantage of this opportunity and eventually I became in charge of the whole thing and was able to pick which models came, which meant I got to have my friends come. I am very pleased with the progression I have had throughout the semester and now I am prepared to take the figure drawing class in the fall.
