Nude a day 60: Two three-minute poses

News!  Jeanie is currently running a "How to Draw" people class on Youtube.  First lesson is here and you can follow the series from her channel "Colourfulworld of Jeanie" (Non-English people note the "u" in "Colourful"!!)

I like these two poses showing the model's graceful figure.

Nude a day - Last one today|

After 60 nude,s one every day in January and February I am ending this series today Feb 29th 2020.  There will be occasional posts on this blog over the next months - some nudes, some other things.  Thanks to everyone who looked at this series. Let me know if you have enjoyed them.

Two videos about drawing

Video 1: Watch this - and start drawing

 

To mark the end of the series Jeanie has produced another video encouraging everyone to draw.  It includes her drawing an under 2-minute sketch of her husband Nick. See below.

 

The 2-minute picture that Jeanie draws in this video

 Video 2: How to draw nudes

This video shows how Jeanie went about this drawing. She drew two very quick pictures, one of which is shown above. They demonstrate gesture drawing.

Nude a day 55 – Lifting high

 

Charcoal on water colour paper. 27 x 48 cm

I like the tooth on this paper. It seems to give strength to the drawing. On the shadowed areas, I smeared the thick charcoal outline into and below the muscles.

This pose emphasises the leg muscles of this strong man.

Nude a day 51 Clasping her knee

15.5 x 36.5 cm Charcoal on peach coloured paper

I like the strong drawing of the body. Hatched charcoal is used to create the shadows.

Nude a day 46: See a pin and pick it up

See a pin and pick it up - All the day you'll have good luck!

See a pin and let it lie - Have bad luck until you die!

All because of a pin! Anyway,

I had good luck that day. I am very pleased with this sketch.

Nude a day 41: Climbing a tree

I rarely draw a model so high above my eye level. I'm glad I drew this pose.
