    i love the lips on this lady, and the soft look to her face that you captured very well

  • djones replied

    Karly – I always look first for eyes and mouth in my models – and Donna “ticked all the boxes”

    even in your abstracts, you ingeniously weave in the sensuality of women…
    her flesh, i’ve felt… her sweet scent, i’ve smelled… i mean in your small abstracts… i don’t think it’s just the lines of figure drawings that you’ve incorporated into your other than figures… i think you own the ingredients…

    i think you own the landscape and the soul of your subject while she sits…

  • djones replied

    heavens you frighten me – just as well you are so far away…

    Excellent graphite and wash. The model has beautiful lips – the sort that rich models pay lots of money for!

  • djones replied

    she was an interesting girl – for a long time a sad life not to be retold here – but emerged confident and glamorous
