Beth: An online figure drawing session

Lydia Cecil

In this session, Lydia Cecil draws a costumed figure of model Beth, concentrating on the challenge of capturing a variety of shapes and textures within the figure and clothing. Using simple materials—chalk and charcoal on toned paper—she explores how to unify the drawing through careful observation of edges, value shifts, and overall design.
