These are the 5 minutes poses.
I like these classic poses. Are model was good at striking them. It makes our job easier.

Life Drawing with Ipad
I enjoy the convienience of doing Life Drawing on the IPad, and have less paper to store. I can still get the work completed in a similar time frame, 1 hour.
Life Drawing on the IPad

I like this cool pose with a hat and sun glasses! Even more fun, done on the IPad. It is a slick way to do life drawing! Saves paper too. 🙂
Figures from Life
I decided to give watercolor a try this time. I think after more practice this will be a good way to go. It was faster than usual.
Ipad Life Drawing
I think using the IPad for Life Drawing works well. I was able to get the figure done in the 1.5 hour session, and I did the chair and background at home.
I used the Art Set Pro app on the ipad, because it behaves very close to natural media. I like the color pencil for drawing, and for coloring and shading I like the oil pastel, and paint. I manipulated it with the eraser, rag and water tools. I used a Wacom Bamboo Stylus.
IPad Life Drawings
I decided to try using the IPad at our Life Drawing Group. I haven’t used the IPad there since I had my first Ipad 1, when it came out. You have to change it up a bit once in a while.

Tonight’s Life Drawing
We had our model in a good costume this evening. I enjoyed drawing some drapery for a change of pace. 12″x16″ hard pastel on warm gray Canson pastel paper.
“School Under the Trees” Final
I finished “School Under the Trees” this afternoon. 12″x16″ acrylic on stretched canvas. Will be auctioned to help raise money to build a school in South Sudan.

Another Night of Life Drawing
I have been creating larger life drawings, I’ve always preferred larger scale. This is 18″x24″ on Tan Strathmore paper with oil pastel. I like to use oil pastel now because it’s not as fragile as soft pastel, and I’m doing them in sketch book form.
Life Drawing Night
I don’t usually choose a viewing angle from behind the model. I ought to do so more often.
