Drawing the human figure

The same week, a model came to the class and we had to draw her very quickly (we've had 30 seconds for each pose), which meant that we didn't have time for details and had to represent the human figure in the most accurate way possible with the fewest lines. I think it was a good exercice for the way to interpret what we see and put it on paper. Later during the lesson we had more time for each pose, the goal being to draw with more details and accurate line, at our own rhythm. The last last exercice was to draw her without even looking at the paper which I found very tricky, but it is an excellent training for the way to observe the human figure and to train our hands to follow what we see. We used charcoal for each drawing.
