A little head study

I adjusted this sketch two extra times as she shifted slightly over the course of the pose.  Understandable, with her head leaning on her hand it becomes difficult not to adjust the pose.
 

Profile

 A pretty decent start to the evening.  Ten minutes and then.... nothing.  

Gestures, gestures and a few more gestures

 

Yep, gestures.  These are nice and clean.  Pretty happy with them.

Ah, the best 15 minutes of the night

 I had a lot of fun with this one and I was dialed in.  Happy with this and that's all I have to say about that.

Long pose

You may notice that I indicated many of Samm's tattoos, something I don't often do.  This time it was a decision because I was really having trouble with the lighting.  I had changed easel stations as I was happy with the POV I was presented with.  This angle presented a bit of foreshortening and a more interesting stacking of the various shapes and the drapery.  However, I had difficulty discerning detail and it became a slog.  I believe that such a mentality is reflected in the drawing.  So I tried to hide some of the problems underneath the body art. 

Some problems slowed me down

 I was having some serious difficulty with her neck.  Maybe with some work on the face this would take a turn for the better.  Sorry Samm, you deserve better.

2 ten minute sketches

 I liked (loved actually) to top pose.  I just hadn't gotten going yet so I wasted it with my rendering.  I started to find my groove with the second pose.
