Sara takes a seat

 Short on time which sometimes lends itself to design.

Some cast shadow

 I love how the shadow cast from Sara's arm informs the shape of her midsection.

Study in tone

 I seem to be a bit fascinated with rendering a select area rather than drafting the entire figure.  So sue me.

Sara returns and here are the gestures to prove it

 

Last sketch of the session

 

I liked working on the previous drawing more but this one probably turned out the best.  Granted, I had more time to work this sketch to various degrees of finish.

Lost edges and shadows, oh my

 Dang near abstract.  I thought I'd be seduced by the back muscles but when I saw (or didn't see) how the arm moved in and out of the shadows I just got lost in the lost edges of the figure and the hard edges of the shadows.  I could have worked on this for hours, just moving in and out of the various shapes and seeing how they relate to each other.  So much fun.

Quick head study of Cody

 Enjoyed getting loosened up with this one.  Had fun with what I didn't put down on paper as much as with what I did.
