"The Sketchers and the Model"

I decided over the summer to begin attending the life-drawing sessions at Allied Arts in Richland again this year. It's been about three years since I was last there.

This sketch represents those in attendance today, there to draw, and for me, sketch, the model, Britney. I believe in this sketch is one of my best people sketches ever. It's the guy on the far right. For the first time I was able to capture not just the person, but the stance, the mood, the slouch - in this case. I like this one, alot.

My plan is continue attending, though they don't have nearly as many sessions as we had when I was attending life-drawing sessions in Pt. Townsend before moving back to eastern Washington. Here there is one per month scheduled; there they were available weekly.
