Standing Nude, Gesture VR drawing using passthrough<\/p><\/div>\n

I got a new VR program \u2013 Gesture VR<\/a>\u00a0 that uses 3d scans of models to allow you to practice gestural life drawing in VR (while wearing a headset). Like all digital programs (I might make Art Rage an exception so there will be others) the mark making is pretty rigid and very hard to get variety into. I have done some small drawings in the virtual studio, shown below, but the big virtue of it for me was that I could use it with my Quest 2 with pass through active so that I could see the model in the space while I drew on paper in the studio. The above drawing is my first effort. Charcoal on paper with a bit of white chalk and around ninety minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

After finishing(?) ‘Lemniscate Wave cc’<\/a> I got an email from the UKSPF Art Grant regarding moderation. I got a small grant from them to produce some drawings with an attached AR element as a downloadable app for smart phones. <\/span><\/p>\n

Communications of any kind always break into the flow of work so the ‘Redfilm’ and developments of the lemniscates are on the back burner for a while as I resolve the timetable for the ‘Doncaster Platonics’ [UKSPF Art Grant].<\/span><\/p>\n
