  • We gained one whole extra hour this weekend.

Having extra sleep is nice but there are plenty of other regular weekends to do that.

I decided to spend my hour doing something that is useful to me.

Last week I went life-drawing for the first time in 2 years and I’d forgotten how helpful the quick warm-up sketches are. 

Literally I am a different person when I’m in that zone, the perfectionist in me gives way to the unpredictable free messy Hannah, who cares less about accuracy and more about experimentation.

It’s a shame that I reserve this for Thursday night classes, so I thought I’d do some practising. 

Every three minutes for my extra hour I did one drawing and tried my best not to care if it was good or not (most of them aren’t!)

Another great thing about life-drawing class is showing my crap drawings to a room full of strangers- equally as nerve-wracking as sharing crap drawings over a blog.

Here they are.
