... some life drawings

I recently started going to life drawing classes. There has been a different model every week so far - I found the male model the most challenging to draw, as the male form is not as familiar to me as the female, which has rather predictable lines and curves - the curves also give very useful points of reference that help when I want to check if something I'm about to draw is in the right position. But I guess the "unpredictability" of the male form is a good thing for practice, as I do not want to allow my brain to interpret and translate the object I'm trying to draw, but rather draw the lines and shapes and shadows I see.
