Charcoal Nude Mag

I drew this in my first and only figure class.  It was one of the first days of class, so I didn’t have much practice in drawing a full figure yet.  It was meant to be a fast and furious drawing to get the main body parts in the proper placement and to show the movement of the pose.  I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out, being one of my first drawings of a full figure.  There is just something about the raw state of a charcoal drawing that I love.  Of course, there are ways to try and clean them up, but I prefer to leave them rough.  I feel it adds character.
