Ilaria,
You could use the cabinet door and tape the ref and drawing side by side.
Have a nice holiday.
Allan

Hi Ilaria,

When I'm on vacation, I just tape my Bargue 2D studies to the wall someplace and sneak away to work on them when nobody wants me for anything.

Bargue Plates

Ok, Bargue Groupies, how do I obtain/buy these wonderful training drawings? I use the airport, and other down-times to draw from life, but I'd love to have these wonderful training devices when I'm not out among 'em.

On The Move Art Training, vacation the airport etc.

If anyone wishes to get the most out of the Bargue drawings then they should not think that this can be done while on the move. I speak from experience. If you think otherwise you are or have shortchanged your self. The Bargue drawings need more attention than one can give while on the fly.

When on the move, I recommend, take with you a A5 sketch pad, 2B pencil, a kneaded eraser, and with these and the John H. Vanderpoel The Human Figure book in you hand, you will receive the training that you are looking for. You will, if you draw all the sample drawings in this book. Another excellent training tool is shape exercises.

Sincerely yours,
mischa
