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!

    Great style…wonderful when it works.

  • djones replied

    yes – when it works – it did get a bit agressive so I stopped the charcoals for a while!

    it was a drawing that came easily – and the first person that saw it ( apart from me and model) bought it – so I must have done something right!

    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!

    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.
