Blood will Flow

For this month's Drawesome challenge to explore unconventional body shapes and sizes in art. No instagram ready glam here.

I'd been wondering what to draw, then I thought about all the wonderful and various models we've had for our life drawing, so here are a few of my sketches.


Kaz
Kaz is in her forties, a belly dancer and cyclist

A bunch of folk festival people

Brenda
I think in her fifties, early 60s, an excellent sitter

Lady Contrary (Burlesque, you can check her out on Instagram. This was her first time life modelling.)

Gerald
Ex army, very upright and still when modelling. Early 70s.






I've left out the models who were more conventional shapes, but we used to have such a great variety of people, I really miss those sessions!
