Yargh but yay

  • Mood: Pain
I went to my first figure drawing class last night! I'm kind of glad I didn't go to the other one, since the one last night was a gesture drawing session. I filled up half of a newsprint pad :D And I feel like I learned a new technique for drawing figures (capturing the overall form within 1 minute), and they actually came out fairly accurate. Go me!

I'm still in pain though, halfway through the class my stomach started hurting again, but I just kept plugging through it.

My kitten is currently wandering around my desk, trying to squeeze under my monitor(???) and sometimes stepping on my keyboard :P

The movie (myspace.com/theperfectpartnermovie) is basically done, I just have to finish the opening credits. But animating in Adobe After Effects is no fun, and it's taking me a long time.

A wise friend once told me "You can't spell funeral without FUN!", so true. That same friend also told me "If at first you don't succeed, whack it with a stick.", he's so brilliant.

Gah! I'm still catching up on my inbox. I just wanted to say that I'm really pleased to hear about your gesture drawing class. It's a great way to bring a figure to life. You capture more than just anatomy and form. Good luck with this.:)

Me too!!! The gesture drawing class is wonderful, and I've met some cool people.

Excellent!

I haven't taken a life drawing class in ages. I'd love to take the one offered at my workplace, if I could find time.

Having a naked person in the middle of the room can be an icebreaker, I guess.:D
