A magical session (Part 2)

 Following on from my previous posting I thought I would add an additional item which Claudia got us to participate in. At the start of her two hour evening life-drawing session she gave us all some folded paper and a small board to rest on. The paper was folded from an A2, so we had eight A5 panels to draw on. Sally then moved around and performed eight very short poses. Perhaps a minute or so each. We were asked to respond to each. So here are my eight instantaneous responses using a charcoal pencil. 

Very rarely do I pursue my art outside of a life-drawing session. However, I almost always place on my blog anything I might sketch (e.g. wilderbeest in Southern Africa, or self-portrait doodles from a reflection in my bathroom mirror). So here I have just worked a little on the eight initial drawings. What it all means I am not at all sure. What it contributes to my life-drawing journey, I do not know. Perhaps I will receive a response to throw some light on these questions.
