Charcoal sketch of a standing man's back, one arm raised with hand resting on head, one hand on hip.
Charcoal sketch of the front of a standing man's torso, hands clasped, arms raised above head, lifting to the right.
20 minute Charcoal sketch of a naked man laying on his back. Right knee bent, left arm raised to rest on his head.
Last night's class gave me 3 drawings I didn't hate. Mostly due to the small improvement in shading. Each one has elements that show promise despite none of them being very good as a whole. It's encouraging.

70 minute charcoal sketch of a topless man with short hair.
A new occasional Monday class with longer poses allowed me to grapple with shading and facial features with mixed results. The proportions and likeness are tolerable, but my shading is still a bit of a car crash. It's all good practice though.

3 x 3 minute charcoal sketches of a standing figure.
15 minute charcoal sketch of a standing man, side to viewer.
I experimented with the camera lucida for the first time last night on some of the shorter poses. Fun, but much practice needed.
Excellent modeling from @steveritterlife

25 minute charcoal sketch of a seated female.
A frustrating evening followed a petty, frustrating day. This last sketch was my only tolerable work from the session. Yet somehow the grumpiness worked its way out of me in the process of drawing badly, so I guess I got exactly what I needed from it.
And so it goes.

20 minute charcoal sketch on light paper of a young woman standing, arms raised, hands behind her head. White chalk highlights on one side of the body.
I managed good proportions for this 20 minute pose last night. The anatomical markers I've been learning about came in handy. Not my best night, but small steps in the right direction.

2 crouching figures roughly sketched in charcoal on a pale background.
Seated male nude, one arm raised and resting on a pole. Roughly sketched in charcoal on a pale background.
I took my old easel with me last night and really enjoyed the increased freedom of movement it gave me, drawing more from the shoulder than the hand.
These are my best.
