Creative Figure Drawing (at Cal Arts)

This is a Figure Drawing section I did at Disney’s college, Cal Arts in Valencia. Instead of drawing the female model as she appeared before me, I used her as reference to go a more imaginative route. I drew the model and exaggerated her features, added wrinkles, over and under extended limbs and used other techniques to create an interesting image.
In this video I decided to document my travel to the college. You get a rare look into my mission as I ride the Los Angeles transit (MTA) to the train (Metro Blueline) arriving in Downtown Los Angeles where I transfer to the underground subway (Metro RedLine). From there I go to Union Station where I road the large train (MetroLink) to Valencia.

Hope you gain something from this video and thanks again for watching.
