Drawing from the model is an exercise and meditation that keeps me in shape for all other artwork. Ideally, I draw once a week. Here are some recent exercises.

The exercise is not only about getting the figure and anatomy right, but about balance in composition, creating a sense of depth and movement, and expressing a feeling. Each of these drawings took 20 to 40 minutes to complete.
