Nude Sketches Day 2

This set of sketches comes from our second week of practicing with a model.  A different model was used but the same goals applied.  We continued to work on setting the proportions of both the space and the figure in the space.  During this class we also discussed Hans Hoffman and some of his theories.  A quote from Hoffman, "Being inexhaustible, life and nature are a constant stimulus for a creative mind."  I feel that this quote applies to working with a nude model because in a sense, the nude model is the essence of both life and nature, and when working with the model there are numerous positions and spaces to recreate.
