This is a charcoal nude of one of my favourite models. At college she could only turn up to model rarely.
This was one of those occasions – and the drawing went without a hitch!

I’m in agreement with Ben here I must say. Really beautifully done. We can all learn from works like this. Masterly… !!!

you know this is a coincidence -I was really upset when this models family moved to Southern Ireland to live – as that was too far away for her to continue working for me!

Eyeprod
Hee. Thanks! and the new model looks good too. ;)
LisArt
A stunningly beautiful sketch. The lines are so sensuous, the dip in her lower back is lovely and the fallen hair along her back is just so soft and smooth. I love this for so many reasons. Your folio of work is amazing.
djones replied

Roz McQuillan
Beautiful drawing!
djones replied
thanks Roz
Bob Bello
