We had a model and worked on that for three hours today.

After a longer exploration to begin, we finished with a six minute pose (above)

A twelve minute pose (above)

And an 18 minute pose. And one thing I remember hearing was that with each figure drawing or painting, you get one more brick of  understanding, until some day, you can stack all those bricks into a figure drawing that represents a lot of work and understanding. But figure drawings bring a ton of feelings with them: sexuality, #metoo, “flesh vases for dick flowers,” (Hannah Gadsby), jealousy, critique.
