LIFE DRAWING - "Nature Backgrounds"



When you draw from real life, everything is there already, you don't have to think, just copy what you see.  The trouble and advantage is you can't spend hour detailing everything thing,  you are forced to work quick and get the important part down.


Drawing from real life forces you capture images in your brain and draw from memory.


After several months of not drawing, one really works up a desire to get back to it.


Another terrible temporary scan of some recent life drawing in color pencil. . . then inked with a single line at home defining shapes and finalizing image.
