This selection of drawings was produced in the life drawing and portrait 3 hour sessions provided by the Canberra Art Workshop.
Like many other artists, I have found it advantageous to study figure and portrait simultaneously because selected poses frequently offer a narrative that incorporates facial expression, body language and purpose.
However, It is not unusual that a particularly appealing or graphic aspect will present itself in the figure, parts of the figure, or head alone.
So in this selection I have tried to illustrate all of these categories.
