I find myself physically responding to the model. The gesture of the pose flows from not only the medium in my contorted hand by my whole body. I feel my spine move with the pose, I feel the tension, the release. My whole body moves with the medium and the model. I am not sure if I'm doing it right but the smile on my face tells me I am enjoying it. I am enjoying how my whole body can flow across the page. I am enjoying the fact that the lines that I make may not look like the model but they look like how I'm feeling and how I'm responding to the model. I change the way I hold the medium, gripping it loosely then holding it angrily in my fist then spinning around then looking at the model's pose from under my left arm then under my right arm then crouching and then being the tallest I can be then moving the medium fluidly across the page then drawing with the medium between my pinky finger then with my hand flipped over. My whole body responds to the model, the pose and the form. At first I felt tentative and apprehensive but then I let go, allowed my intuition to take a hold of me and responded how I felt.
