I've never done figure drawing in any sort of formal manner before. Today was a real education, especially given our short time limit. We had to completely capture the form and/or movement/gesture in a minute or two. It was particularly difficult from my vantage point. The overlapping action overlapped a bit too much, such that it became unclear where one form begins and another ends. I drew two little maps to assist me in discerning the jumbled shapes later. Exhausting. It reminded me of a Simpsons joke about having tried to do a live animated show, but the animator's hands kept cramping up.
