DRAWING THE NUDE

A few guidelines so you will be ready for "drawing the nude" next monday.

1. Please bring the necessary tools: pencils (4B,6B), soft leads and at least 1.2mm, but I recommend you to start with a broad medium such as charcoal or graphite stick, or hard pastels, ink, brushes or pens (if you dare)  to prevent you from dwelling too much on detail in the early stages of your drawings.

2. Be professional, be on time and behave with respect. That means that you will try to be quiet and concentrated in your work. Bring all the materials and tools to draw a lot. You will use a lot of paper, bring several sketchbooks or paper formats and mediums.

3. Start with the structure, the main lines, balance, and proportions. Remember we are not artists but architects, we learn from real balanced structures, shapes, elements, relationship between parts, points match in the space.

It is important to establish the main lines and shapes before filling in with shading or drawing facial features, fingers and toes, as these will often have to be changed if you discover the proportions are incorrect or that you have misunderstood the angle of the girl's head or hand.

4. There will be long poses and short ones. Analyze the pose accurately before you begin and then start, from the main lines to the structure, and at the end, details. Train yourserlf trying to make quick drawings.

5. Please copy these drawings so you can start practising, then try to make your own with the same style.
