Teaching Fashion Drawing!!

Picture 1: The first approach by my house mates

Since yesterday, I've taught  basic fashion drawing for my landlady and house mates. What the start is that they saw my drawing as my exercise. 

Then my drawing lesson starts after dinner every day. Yesterday was the first day and they took more than 2 hours to finish one drawing. Surprisingly, they drew jolly good!!

(see picture 1)

My landlady as well. (see picture 2)

In fact, they did under the direction of me, but I couldn't believe these were their first approach of mode-dessin!!

I think they got a good teacher!! lol

When they finished their drawings, I said, ' I also have to draw to keep and improve my skill'. My landlady required me to       draw 2 photos by quick drawing. ( She wanted to see how long I can draw it!! ) 

Drawing in front of people, especially quick one is really tense. I finished 2 drawing within 5 min per each. ( Picture 3)  That's a great exercise for me!! 

Moreover, my house mates always went back their room after dinner, although they are English learners. I think it also good for them to do something with the landlady.

何やら昨日から、ファッションイラストの基礎を、我が家の大家さんとハウスメイト（語学留学生）２人、合計３人に教えてます。事の発端はですね、私が練習のために、モードデッサンをしていたら、大家さんに「教えて！！」と言われ、次の日、何故か、同じく、ハウスメイトまで、参加する事に。で、昨日は３人の初日。

１枚描くのに、２時間以上かけて、仕上げてましたが・・・驚く事に、初めてとは思えない程の仕上がり！！（写真１）

絵をたしなむ大家さん（推定年齢７０歳越え）も、写真２の出来映えです。

勿論、途中途中に、私の指事のもとの作成です。うん、彼らは、良い先生を得たんだよ！！と、思う事にしました（苦笑）

教えているばかりじゃ、自分の練習が出来ないな〜とぼやいたら、大家さんが、「じゃ、これ描いてよ、あなた、早く描けるでしょ」と写真を２枚持って来た・・・

いや、人前で、クロッキー的ドローイングは、緊張するって！！と思いつつも、これも訓練！！と描き上げたものが、写真３です。各それぞれ、５分以内に出来上がり、ほっとしましたよ・・・

ハウスメイトは、英語の語学学生です。が、夕食後は、すぐに各自の部屋に戻ってしますので、こういう風な、大家さんとのコミュニケーションは大事だよな〜〜
