Archival Adrianna

Very fun pose and a wonderful exercise in drawing some extremes.  Adrianna has some great edges to work with and I hope we have her back in the future.

From the first session with Adrianna.

Last one... really

I warned y'all that I was focused on her face.

Last pic of the night

Her features are just too much fun to ignore.  Spent almost the whole session just drawing Adrianna's face.

Linear profile

Bit of a theme starting here.

Start... stop... restart

The model moved significantly from where I was starting.  I know this happens but it usually isn't so significant that I can't use my initial marks.  Just wanted to show the start and then where I finished .  I really prefer the initial pose and I became fairly frustrated and I think it shows in the sketch.  A couple of the other artists liked what I ended up with but it just doesn't appeal to me.

Gestures of Adrianna

I spent most of the evening drawing our model's face.  These represent the majority of the actual figure sketches.

Fun

This was my favorite sketch.  I like the rough nature of the technique and the elongated pose Adrianna took.  Very organic drawing for me.

Sway

I'd love to delve deeper into this but on the other hand I really like it as is.  Not sure adding much more would help this as an image or not.  Depends on what I would ultimately like this to be.  Kinda fun having options.

Light & Shadow

A little study in contrast.  Quick 5 minute sketch.

Quick head study

Adrianna has an intriguing face that is a blast to draw.  Not enough time to really get into this one but I had fun.

Update:

Doodled around with this while I waited for the rest of the group came in.
