Favorite of the evening

One of those drawings that works as an abstract, unfinished piece.  A very nice way to end the session.

Interesting twist

I really liked this pose with the manner in which she twists her left arm and the torque that it has on the shoulder.  I got hung up on the back and the layers this twist produced.  Would love another shot at this one.

A bit of hip

Apropos for a dancer, doncha think?

Just stretchin'

Too short a pose to really get into the beautiful back muscles here.  This was a wonderful pose.

First gestures of 2014

And so another year begins.

Takin' a break

Looks like our dancer is either tired from her New Year's Eve celebration or she may be contemplating the resolutions she has made.  I always enjoy these poses as they give us a chance to draw the way the weight and various shapes react to the seated position.  With her relaxed posture providing a slump and the left hand holding up her head there was a lot to deal with in this sketch.

Welcome 2014

Looking forward to this year.  Hope to get better and take advantage of any and all opportunities to come.
