Two approaches to Sophie




The same model in similar poses from the same viewpoint drawn one week apart. For the top one we were asked draw inspiration from the work of Egon Schiele. In the bottom there is barely any line at all. I used to work with the maxim that there are no lines in nature and tried to define everything by shadow alone, so this drawing is a reversion to that.

Both drawn at the Life Drawing sessions at the Oak And Pastor pub, Junction Road, London N19. Tutor Jonathan Ellis.
