Spring 2012
Rachael Burke, the Drawing II Professor, went more quickly into figure drawing than Sulpy, my Drawing I Professor, but I mangaged well. Burke Typically ahd us sketch gestures starting with a class of 1 to 2 to 5 minute gestures to a day of 'Geometric Reduction.' The concept seemed to correlate well with the Modeling thought process in Computer Animation. The last day we had to do shorter poses ranging from 5 to 30 minute poses, I had a revelation. Cross hatching or showing line work seemed so unfinished and undesirable to me at first but it came through to much pleasure in the 25 minute pose below. If a painting could include their brushstokes, then so could a drawing include pencil strokes [I know, not new in general but new to me]
