This drawing is from my life drawing class. I chose to draw it landscape as it fits more of the body’s curve in the frame. The position she is lay in is an interesting position as it is slightly scrunched and curled up. I chose the media of graphite and chalk as I wanted to capture the grainy texture from the sugar paper. Also with the curves and lines created from her body I wanted to capture the direction of the shade and graphite is a good media for showing this. There wasn’t much strong high light on her body as she wasn’t spot lit, but I did capture some slight high lights form the directional rubbing. I didn’t draw her head in the composition as I felt her body shape was strong enough without the distraction from her textured hair.
