Draw 'til you drop - figure drawing Day 2, morning session

It was tough to get up and out of bed the next morning, but when I did I was super stoked to be undertaking another full day of drawing the figure.  We began with "Diane" and some quick 1 min gestural drawings.

I started by using the side of a 3B graphite pencil.

Then used various Copic markers, because you have to commit when using ink.

Then we did some two minute poses. I like the right one with the arching back.

 Some other quickies to establish the poses in a short period of time.

 Some 5 minute poses in compressed charcoal and red pencil.

Followed by some 5 min. ones that I did in a variety of ink.

What a way to warm up on the first session....back to materials that blend easy.

This lying down pose was done with vine charcoal.

The next were 10 - 15 min poses, done in red pencil. See the reflection in the mirror?

The mirror adds a really nice element and challenge to the task of drawing.

I did this one in Copic multi-liner and brush pen.

Here is the finished page while in the morning session =:D
