Daniel: An online figure drawing session

Lydia Cecil

In this session, Lydia Cecil draws two 30-minute figure studies of model Daniel, focusing on similar balancing back poses and how to capture the overall forms of the body. Using charcoal on white paper, she works broadly to establish structure and proportion before refining the pose with selective detail and tonal variation.
