My life drawing class left the studio and headed to the British Museum on Friday. It was great fun although a bit overwhelming - so much to draw it was difficult to know where to start. We were in the Greek Room (home of the Elgin Marbles). Everyone took a different approach - most people picked one or two things to draw and spent a lot of time on them. I was like a kid in a sweet shop and wanted to draw everything, so I did lots of rough sketches. The time passed so quickly... I'm going to go back and draw there again soon.

Three goddesses from the east pediment of the Parthenon



Horse sculpture from the chariot of the Moon God Seline - also from east pediment of the Parthenon



A bloke fighting a centaur (couldn't find it on the museum website)


Centaur with missing arms and legs (no link for him either)
