Actually a two hour study in conté pencils on a dark Ingres paper. First time back at Stamford this year. I really had a lot of fun with this one. I found myself standing back from the easel and using the pencils like paintbrushes.

What size is the actual picture?

January 11, 2019 at 6:20 am #760799I love that style of yours Harry, and what incredibly lush nipples! My only criticism is the colour of the lower limbs. It’s a very confident, almost provocative pose by the model which you’ve captured to perfection

This is such a tricky pose- I struggle with the front-on foreshortening- but you have handled it expertly!bethany
