Life drawing replay: Mariana (The May Queen)
🕑 Added 2024-05-03 11:31:28 +0000 UTCThis video is a recording of a live Zoom life drawing session, aired on 1st May 2024. The recording is shared here so that you can catch up and draw from the session if you missed it, or continue to work on a drawing if you attended live! As this is a recording of a live session the quality is limited by Zoom and will be a lower resolution than our our tutored sessions which are recorded locally and undergo more rigorous processing before their release. Please feel free to work from the video directly, or to take a screenshot to work from - if you take a screenshot please do be mindful of the photo guidance below. Click the cog in the bottom right of the screen and select 1080 for the highest resolution image - if you're working on a tablet or phone, enable rotation and turn your devise into portrait format for the best view.
EXTRA - Mariana has kindly provided some additional reference photos inspired by poses in the session for all of us on the Draw Patreon to work from! You can find them HERE
