David: An online figure drawing session

Lydia Cecil

In this 1-hour figure session, Lydia focuses on measuring and edge control in a sustained drawing with model David. The emphasis is on checking proportions by eye and adjusting as you go, while keeping edges soft or sharp where needed to describe form. The aim is a drawing that feels balanced, clear, and responsive to the pose. Materials used: Willow charcoal, Nitram charcoal, and white paper.
