A Day in T1/06

I had whole day classes in room T1/06 on Tuesday. Started with seminar then critique, after lunch I had the life drawing class.

Seminar
Notes:
How do I reflect my own work?
How do I document researches?
How to measure result?
How blog work to me? Is reflective on blog effective?
What reflection look like?

Critique
My part of critique didn't went well. The work I've done so far is too little and the whole context is in chaos, as Jo and Steve (tutors we having critique with) doesn't get what I'm going to do and I have too little drawing to discuss. Shanine ( one of my classmate in the critique group) suggested me to do a mood board so my idea with the characters can be more organize. Steve thinks it is good for me to do the thinking by drawing, make myself to be more productive, making more work and also see it as practicing drawing skills. Jo in the other hand told me not thinking the end yet as building idea is more important in this stage.

Life Drawing Class
In life drawing class today, we experimented drawing with wet media. We used acrylic in five shade of grey and brushes, drew human figure. Steve wanted us to focus on the architecture of the model, thinking the shapes that built the figure. At first, I was not quite get to the idea of drawing with wet media, instead, I did it more in painting way. With Steve's advice (he kept saying:" from wet to dry", "do not fill","focus on the architecture") and demonstration, I slowly got to know what to look at and had control on the acrylic and brushes. We first drew four standing poses, then for the second paper, we practiced lying pose, which get to thinking about the perspective when drawing human figure. 



This life drawing class had explore my new technique-- draw with wet media, and brush sketching might no that bad at all, as long as you learn to control it.
