First week of classes summed up thusly:

Graphic Design core: projecty--Yay!

History of Graphic Design has now been retitled (in my mind): "incoherent drunken ramblings of students"

I sort of decided that figure drawing would be useful but lame but surprise: real nekkid models: yay!

tired now. sleep good. tuesday--long.

Clarification, please.

Are they truly nekkid models?

The reason I ask is based off of the definitions I've been told thusly:

Naked - unclothed

Nekkid - unclothed, and doing something about it.

Now, I don't know Sara that well, but if said models are truly 'nekkid,' I'm guessing she might have a problem with that... &;)

The model was doing something about it: she was modeling, as opposed to just being naked and making breakfast, a sammich or other non-naked activities. Also different than nekkie in which one is naked while doing something where naked is optional yet not required (like hot tubbing).

note: all terminology is accurate according to the toosuto LJ lexicon

naked housechores doesn't sound all that fun...

however naked modelling is a VERY important part of learning to draw... helps you to figure out what things are connected to others when you are trying to figure out positioning without having a model handy... mirrors are also good for this...

all this put together makes artists seem a little weird but oh well... we do what we do for our art

You may have noticed that I draw more female characters than males. Mirrors are indeed handy.

(Of course, who needs naked when short shorts are in? Hmm?)
