Model Drawing 3, Week 4

Warm-ups:


Five 2-minute gestures, followed by five 2-minute, two-handed contour drawings.

We moved on to four 3-minute gestures with a cape, followed by one 7-minute rendering of a satiny bathing suit.

We then completed three 10-minute figures in a bathing suit, finished enough to place tracing paper over.

Student work:

I completed one garment on tracing paper (a satin nightgown with satiny shirt over it), followed by a demonstration of quickly indicating satin.  Note the strong highlights, core shadow, and reflected light that characterizes a satin finish.  Lace can quickly be laid in with "squiggles" although if more time is available, I prefer a more finished rendering as according to the illustration teacher.

The last figure wore a feather boa, just without the proper feathers to make it a real feather boa:
