Now this was fun
I really enjoyed working on this one. It really plays to my interests, the delicate lines and the shaping of the masses with lines more than shading. This was fun and I'd have loved to had a couple of hours with this pose.

A bit of Sepia doodling
Working with these pencils has certainly slowed me down. But in a good way, I think. I'm not as interested getting a full figure done in the tiny time frame available. I've been looking at a lot of artist's work on-line and I've been wondering if I'm not giving myself enough permission to really time my time and explore each piece. Tiny steps...

Lyra pencil sketch
I went to Art's and picked up some Lyra colored pencils to try and match the bistre and sepia conte sticks I've been so fond of. I intended to pop some nice, tight lines into the heavy handed stick-work I have been doing. Turns out I spent more time noodling than I did smudging.

The best of the lot
The fifteen minutes I got to spend on this just wasn't enough. This was starting to come into its own. Lovely light and shadow and some great drapery. I enjoyed working on this one.

Bended knee
So many really fun shapes to explore and when the time ran out I had a nice little abstract study. I like it, though.
