And that was the final life drawing class. Though I've always said "I'm not interested in drawing people, oh no" and avoided life drawing generally, I found it really interesting - and invigorating - and feel that I've made some progress in being able to depict a person so they look normally proportioned. After (quite) a bit more practice - more looking, more doing, more looking at what's done and at what needs to be done next - I might be able to depict identifiable individuals (or fingers that don't look like sausages) - an exciting prospect!
