Thinking about how long it has been since I sat in a figure drawing class, I believe since college. You do the math if you like, I don't feel like going there.
I stepped out with Lori on Monday, and we went to a free figure drawing workshop at Art Center College of Design, for students and graduates. Starting with one minute studies, then 2, 5, 10, and ended with a 20. After 2.5 hours, Lori and I called it quits and vowed we would be back next week. Good practice for some upcoming work I would like to attempt.

Robin I think these are very good it looks like you have not lost your skills and knowledge of figure drawing in all that time.
I recognise that title! :-)
I really don't think you were out of yours doing these. The third one in particular is very nice.
Looks like you got back into your comfort zone pretty quickly with these! Lovely.
These are all great figure sketches robin...you surely still have the touch!

These are wonderful, yes. Robin I just wanted to wish you a great time in New York and meeting Mary is going to be awsome for you.
Mary is everything and more! I have never met such a beautiful person before Mary. She is so much fun to be with as well. Laugh a lot, laugh and have a lot of fun too. I am going to want to hear about your trip.
It looks as though it went very well! These are lovely figure drawings.
Robin! these are wonderful! you certainly have a talent for figure drawing.
Mary - thank you, I will continue to work on it
Anita - sorry if I "lifted" a title.
Dave - awww how nice of you to say.
Ronell - appreciated, I am encouraged
Pilan - yes I am thrilled. It will be a great experience I am sure.
Casey - yes easier than anticipated.
Billie - thankfully I spent many years training my eye to see. It really does help
How lovely for you to get back into some figure drawing again. I envy you finding a class. I haven't had any luck here or not at the right times anyway.
I agree, your ability has not diminished over time.
Yes I enjoyed this workshop as there are students, artists of all levels. There was one older gentleman that was doing these gorgeous drawings with purple, terracotta, and a florescent orange. It was lovely. A young student struggling with the basic shapes was across the room. There is an instructor in the room, to monitor the setting.
I hope you find a group, or I encourage you to put out a call to other artists and develop something.
These are great! I like the geometric angularity in your rendering. Wonderful figure drawings!
I kept trying, unsuccessfully, to leave a comment here yesterday. Will try again because I think your sketches are amazing.
Thank you Jana, I liked that about the view too.
