Exploration

Trying to get used to the new model and I started using larger strokes to get shapes rather than anything unique to her.  I like the result, fairly abstract and yet recognizable.

Gestures of our newest model

Welcome to Madame E.  Newbie who did a very nice job for us.  Looking forward to getting some great poses out of her that play to her strengths.

Long pose

We ended the night with this pose.  I really only started to get the finish going in the last couple of minutes.  Not sure what took me so long to just get to this stage but, well, I'm gettin' on in years.

Barely started

I could have gone on for quite some time with this one.  As it stands there are some very confusing shadows that give me fits when it comes to showing the turns of the figure.  Still, I like where it was going.

Nomadic sketching

Just a stream of consciousness sketch, letting the hand wander over the page.

Back to basics

Needed stronger light to bring out better muscle tone.  A bit of a boring sketch.

Latest Lady L limns

Gestures from last night.  Student grade paper.  Strange for me to work with.
