I don't draw these days
Seriously...the last sketching happened last month. And I mean August, not September. I've done one or two very simple doodles at work during meetings, but for the most part. Poof! All gone. I think it's the lack of train/lightrail commute, sleepyness, and other creative output. I miss it though.
The idea of drawing naked models for hours is far less sexy then it sounds. Even in "sexy" poses, my view on them becomes very distant. And it's hard to think sexy when there's the backdrop of very serious, studious faces. Adam pointed out that it's rather odd I self-censor my sketches. I agree.
My favorites from the set. Note that the shoe and the catwoman mask are warn by the studio's owner. She only posed very briefly at the end, but she was fantastic to draw. I mean, obvioulsy the woman knows how to hold herself- she runs a flippen burlesque studio... I just didn't think it made that much of a difference when doodling. The main model was nice- great personality- but not enough meat on her to be fun. I like drawing curves! Which is probably why I focused exclusively on the curve of her back/rump.
Least favorite from the set. There are two in there where I tried a very brief, abreviated style. Not my thing, but I pat myself on the back for trying.
Whenever the erge comes back to me, I'll be ready. I'm just waiting in the mean time. Waiting for something.
