Merry Christmas!

Happy Christmas to Everyone in the figure forum,
There's been some wonderful stuff on here lately, so glad i stumbled upon this website a couple of months ago, it's been very educational!
Anyway, i got the afternoon off work yesterday, planned on cleaning the car...alas i got distracted by some charcoal and some old printer paper poking out of the cupboard.
So, thought i better share :lol: The first 3 are my wife, the last is after a painting by a guy named Jose Rivas

Hi James, thanks for the warm wishes. Hope you and your nearest ones enjoy your holidays. As usual, some brisk and expressive figure drawing :thumbsup:

Thanks for the comments guys, all the best for the new year.

Sandra i agree with you about the first pose, it's a great one. I saw it in a few paintings so i got her to copy it for me, that one will definitely become a painting sooner or later.
