The feedback I got from Maryclare was very positive again, and she was much happier that I’d drawn the background this time. she commented that it was good that I was able to understand perspective well, and that I knew to draw the model much bigger as they were closer. She did say though, that when I draw digitally I tend to make the face much more cartoon-y, which is fair, I think its kind of my default setting as I do so much digital art in a certain style for my personal work, and it can become tricky to remove myself from that suddenly.
Overall Maryclare’s sessions weren’t terrible, just a little uncomfortable with how she talked to the models and sometimes tedious with how repetitive the poses she was commanding became, and because we got barely any breaks, I often found myself rushing through the drawing in the half the time, just so I could refresh my brain for a few minutes, or skipping drawing poses altogether.
I also wish we’d gotten to draw more poses where they’re wearing clothes because clothes and the way they fold and hang are difficult to work out and draw and I think that so often gets overlooked in life drawing classes!
