Sitting Pretty

One of the loveliest drawings I've done to date. Very softly rendered with Walnut Ink and a quill pen then light washes were used to represent tone and anatomy. The drawing is on very lightly sized and prepared tan toned Pesca paper and is in a gold frame that matches the tonality of the piece.

Goddess Study

For a Painting series that I am currently developing that will incur Venus being pursued by Cupid as he tries to stab her in the heart with an arrow. Just a quick study of the form as it falls back and the foreshortening in the arms and hands. I am unsure as to if this is the final drawing but I like the action of the pose.

Sad Nora

Perhaps I caught something of Nora's thoughts as she posed so patiently for an hour for this drawing. Her expression was so sad and it really was a challenge to capture it exactly. All in all a very nice charcoal drawing with the focus on the foreshortening of the anatomy of the figure. Done on sized Grey Canson paper.
