Drawing course 2

Here it is the second lesson. Unfortunately, we left life drawing and we began to draw from scruffy copies. But this was exhalting anyway!! And I was able to practice at home.

This is an etching from Giorgio Morandi




and we had to copy it with pencil. Painstaking work, but I somehow was reaching an elated state of mind. After some hours  (I think about 6 to 8) I got this


This is a good exercise. You learn how to modulate shapes, textures and value only through line. You basically can control only the weight, density and direction of these lines. The copy was made of the same size so I could measure things faster.
