Course work: Today I chose to work with a red chalk pencil. The first four poses were sitting poses, and I think that three were too difficult to be two-minute poses, as I was unable to finish them, although good lines were occasionally to be seen. The two squatting and two kneeling poses produced similar results, as did a standing and a recumbent pose I added in just to bring the total number of 2-minute poses to 25. Although these 25 2-minute poses are lacking in accuracy, on the whole they are much improved over those done at the beginning of Assignment Two, and I think provide a useful reintroduction to the figure.
