I have been attending life drawing sessions to improve my understanding of anatomy and just as general good practice for my drawing skills. I like to use a variety of pencils, but my preferred media is charcoal, as a I tend to use quite broad strokes and there is a certain liveliness in the charcoal which seems to suit the style that I draw.
I like to use lots of different exercises during the class as well, like drawing with my weaker hand, using one continuous line, and drawing without looking at my paper. These exercises are meant to build up the relationship between my hand and eye.
