So a while ago we got this list of things to draw on the day of the drawing exam. there was category A - with things in it like pineapple,banana,peeled orange etc
then category B- jar of dry cereal and other odd things like that. It said on the day to draw one either from A or B. then category c- human form drawing ....it said like a boy sitting down holding a tennis racket in two hands etc....
So in may when i do my drawing exam and i sit down to do 1 thing from category a or b will you be drawing it from your head- like say before the exam i say i will draw the pineapple on the day... do i just go in on the day and draw the pineapple straight from my head or will there be models in the exam hall we have to try and draw?? And then on category c will there be a live model in the hall that we draw on the day doing the described pose??? thanks so much :D:D

You bring whatever object you plan to draw into the exam with you, and there will be a live model for you, the aim of this test is observational skills, so they dont expect you to draw from your head.

I'm afraid you're going to have to buy the pineapple yourself as they don't supply the objects. But no one is expected to draw from there head on the day... Real artist don't usually draw from their head

Cakes.

You bring it in yourself, that's why they have an open pencil case on the option list, for those who forget :rolleyes: or don't bother to bring anything in.
