Figure Drawing

This semester I have a figure drawing class... aka I draw naked people.  I still remember my first class ever at CCAD.  It was a figure drawing class... aka naked people drawing class (but I didn't get the memo).  I was an eager student.  I got there early and watched as everyone arrived.  Then a naked woman sat on a stool, and we were told to draw her.  With my 2b in hand, I attempted to draw this woman... mind you, I was in complete shock and felt slightly uncomfortable.  Nowadays, staring at the human figure for three hours is normal.  It's strictly business.  


As much as I love drawing, I'm getting a little burnt out drawing because I have two drawing classes this semester.  12 hours of drawing class gets old after awhile, which is why I decided to have a little fun with today's assignment (as pictured).  Its not my best work... but I enjoy it.  It makes me chuckle and reminds me of The Simpsons.  The technique is fun.. using pastels on black paper, but next time I'll stay away from yellow.    Enjoy!
