Workshop, Life drawing 2

These sketches were drawn on my second life drawing session. I found that this session was a lot more successful than my first. I believe my drawings that are showing here show improvement, such as the 16 quick sketches , at least most are showing a full body sketch were previous they were not. The sketches were white chalk was my media these drawings are showing lighting on the model but without using a solid line first. It was interesting to use this techniques as it really made me think strongly how lighting and shadow casting on a figure.
