Nude Figure Drawing

I found a pretty awesome figure drawing tool online. It gave me the feeling of being back in school in my figure drawing class again. You can set up your time intervals and the website cycles through a variety of figurative pictures to draw. After a couple quick drawings I ended up pausing this particular picture and spent about 45-60 minutes creating a more finished piece. If you want to do an at home drawing session I recommend trying it, here: Figure Drawing Practice .
