Our model didn’t show today, so we did (really quick) portraits of each other instead.

My portraiture falls apart when it’s that fast, wow haha

We had no real warmup, but I was definitely working faster by the end. After the first portrait I also borrowed some charcoal from the school’s supplies, because the charcoal I had was gouging the paper. ._.

Today’s figure drawing class…isn’t. We’re instead helping an artist who will be displaying at the school’s gallery in a few days.
Part of this involves painting rocks.

I was on team “collect rocks” so this was the first I actually got to paint.

It’s crazy right now. There’s a team of like 7 kids braiding climbing ropes about five feet to my left.

I had already done the exercise today for Figure Drawing in an earlier Expanded Field class, so I was told to work on a self portrait while everyone else fiddled with ink.
Not sure I got a very good likeness but it was fairly quick work I guess.
