Flying Duck Life Drawing 067

Drawn in September 2014. The model is Claire (or Clair?), a really good model. Great poses, manages to keep still, excellent to draw.

This is a Tuesday evening at the Flying Duck pub in Glasgow where they run life drawing sessions for two hours. For more details visit:

There’s normally between 40 and 60 artists – mostly students – and three models. They seem to have one male and two female as a general rule. It’s great to see what other people do and I’ve seen some excellent art skills.

This is a 15 minute pose. I’m using a 2mm mechanical pencil (Rotring or Koh-I-Noor) normally a B and a 5B. I use a paper stick and small chamois for shading and I’ve also started trying out a Sepia or Blue wash.

There’s no better way to spend a Tuesday evening!
