I am Brittany Schmelling, currently a senior Art Education major at UW-Stout. I chose to take Life Drawing I as part of my drawing focus for my major. I have always enjoyed drawing, but the human form has never been my strong point. In my previous major of Industrial Design, I found a great need to be able to draw elements of the human body and have correct proportions, so I am looking forward to improving those skills here in Life Drawing. My past drawing has been focused a lot on 'copying' and not as much 3D/still life work. I can take a photo and draw from that, but I am most looking forward to being able to draw straight from memory/life. As far as my major is concerned, I would (of course) like to have the experience of life drawing to better prepare myself to teach. Below I have included a couple of my favorite works from the past 3 years...
