Colour-Coded

Today I started my life drawing class.  My new teacher has a colour-coded way to begin.  Her method uses three colours each darker than the last.  She uses yellow, red and blue chalk and it's best to do the same.  It was confusing for me today but I hope that a new way will be good for my brain and my drawing.  The yellow lines are the initial gesture.  Red is for axis points or joints -- where the body changes direction.  Blue is for mass.  Today we worked especially on the mass of the rib cage.

Here are some of my drawings from today.
