I’ve had the chance to use some great models this term. Try getting your hands into the same position as the model in the sketch below third from left, difficult isn’t it? Last night Jade and Benita came up to me during the coffee break and suggested the idea of doing some poses where they could balance and lean against each other which they then did for ten to fifteen minutes. Thanks ladies and I will try and remember the chocolates for next week. The drawings below are by Chris Cutts, Lyndsey Melling and W. Stevens and will give you some idea of what they came up with.
