Freya: An online figure drawing session

Lydia Cecil

For this week's 1-hour figure session, Lydia will be working from an unusual pose with model Freya, focusing on temperature shifts and how they can guide attention to an unexpected focal point. The drawing will explore the balance between warm and cool tones, using limited colour to build contrast, depth, and emphasis across the figure. Materials used: black, white, and red Caran d’Ache pencils.
