Russian Drawing Course 6: Drapery

Before you being your final assignment, you will learn how to draw and render inert cloth, or cloth that is resting on a surface. Although it appears different, the same principles you’ve learned so far still apply. You will use your knowledge of weight and the basic construction of drapery to draw inert cloth and take what you’ve learned from previous lessons to clearly describe the forms and structure of the fabric.

This lesson includes both the reference image used in the lecture as well as a 3d model of the plaster cast for your assignment.
