Over the course of our figure drawing block, we did a multitude of different sketches, some longer and some shorter. We were pushed to not only draw but also be a model for the class and/or smaller groups. We were also required to differ in our choice of materials whether it be graphite pencil, oil pastel, or chalk. I found that each material had both its pros and cons, for instance, oil pastel was great at doing the quick, small, and less detailed poses but when it comes to the longer, and more detailed pieces the malleable nature of the pastel causes it to dull fast and make it harder to use it for small aspects of your model. My process was definitely one of growth, I never really draw people on my own merit and so I tend to stay away from the whole subject of scale and proportion. At first, I struggled with the whole project, throwing away many of my first drawings because I didn't like them, but as I put more and more effort into them and got comfortable with my drawings I actually pivoted to actually enjoying the time we spend creating these figures quite a lot. The two big areas I grew in over the course of this block were proportion and an appreciation of my own work. All in all, I think this project was one of the ones that has benefited me the most as an artist. Although I don't believe ill be doing any more figure drawing on my own time I feel it helped me to know that if I had to I wouldn't be too uncomfortable with the idea and strengthened my understanding of proportion/ scale
