The general consensus among my women art classmates is they prefer drawing female curves rather than male muscles. Next week I’ll ask the men. One of the women said her husband was VERY upset she would take a class where the focus was staring at nude men.
For these sketches I threw muscles to the wind and just drew. I took a few liberties (like cutting off the models head because he was wearing a ridiculous helmet which I refused to draw and beefing him up a bit to match my own fantasies . . .)
I’m only sharing the back views I drew . . . don’t want to upset any of YOU that I’ve been staring at full frontal nude men . . .

Thank you for the “fabulous”. Coming from you that’s a high compliment.
Of course I showed more skin in my drawing than you did in yours . . . skin was the only thing the model was showing . . .

Whew. Thank you for your discretion. As it is, this is nothing we don’t normally see in a bent-over plumber or a kid with low-riding shorts.

You never cease to amaze me. Frankly I’m a bit disappointed that you didn’t share all the sketches (wink wink). Judy

Your progression of sketches shows how much you improved over the time period of the class. You have to learn how to see, and you did a great job in the last sketch.
I loved my life drawing classes and have a lot of respect for the people willing to pose. It takes lots of strength to pose even for a short amount of time, not to mention a great deal of confidence.
Thanks for posting your art class products each week – I’m really enjoying them, thinking seriously of taking a class. See what you started? 😀 tee hee.
