we had a new model this week, Maya. As a model, she was very expressive and really gave a strong range of poses…it helps that I sketch with animators.

this week, I returned again to charcoal, because it has really helped me expand my drawings to fill the page. Something that I have been struggling with in this sketchbook. The only problem is that I have probably one more sketch session in this book before I finish it!
as always, I am pretty happy with my oil pastel sketches, but I need to choose my colors more wisely. The tan and purple colors weren’t allowing for the subtle blending that I wanted. However, I am not complaining as I still think the drawings (especially the head!) this week were good.
