New month, new Drawing Club Challenge!!!

If you are a member of the Conté Tier, you might have seen my recent artist study of Austrian Artist Egon Schiele.

I wanted to give you the opportunity to try you hand at some Egon Schiele inspired anatomy and poses - but you don't have to draw it in his style!

You do you!

What is the Draw-Along Challenge?

The Draw-Along Challenge is all about taking a reference photo (provided by me) and tackling a specific theme or technique each month.

Some tips for this reference:

  • BEAN: Use the bean to capture the twist

  • BALANCE: Use plumb lines and negative space to careful balance this pose.

  • SHAPE LANGUAGE: What shape language could you use to emphasise her anatomy?

Hi Gillian. Ideally how long time wise should you take to do a drawing / pose ? 3M ? 5M ?

What is "shape language"?

gillian gestures

Shape Language is a design concept. For example....the movie Aladdin has curvy shape language (because it is based on the shapes of Arabic.)

Just uploaded mine hehe. Did a short version and a long version. I find it hard to loosen up and achieve that spontaneous gestural style. Hope I get better with more practice~ will probably attempt to do it in Egon's style when I get better.
