Went to a life drawing class for the first time in over a decade. I forgot how challenging it is to capture anything from a 2- or 3- minute pose, but it is so nice to spend 2 hours drawing and come away with pages and pages of work.
Someone mentioned that by using a smaller sketchbook they were able to get past their art block more easily, which is a great idea. It doesn’t take long to fill one of these pages and it’s been a great way to warm up each day before diving into some larger pieces I’m working on.
I went into this with low expectations but am surprisingly pleased with how it turned out!
A great way I’ve found to keep up with daily painting practice is with these little 3”x4” cards. They don’t take much time to paint, and the size is a fun challenge.
