Bare Necessities by Diana Moses Botkin

Have you ever tried to draw the figure in thirty seconds?

It's not enough time to get much down on paper: just the very simplest shadows or lines of gesture.

I really enjoyed the challenge of these warm-up poses. You can see how I start the longer poses which begin with the thought process evident in these brief sketches. They almost look like nothing... but if you look closely, you can see the forms.
