Email me about this sketch.
Every now and again in figure drawing, I’m able to come up with a good color sketch. I particularly like the way this one came out. Juvia is an older model with interesting features. While not as shapely as many of the younger models who work for my group, Juvia is beautiful in spirit and has great character in her face. I think I managed to capture some of that in this sketch.

“At Rest”
I’ve been spending more time on figure sketching these days. Sales have been a little slower than usual and this has reduced some of the pressure on me so I’m taking advantage of the opportunity to explore and improve in other areas. I’d really like to work on my figures more and hope to do some more oil and pastel sketches during the winter. Here’s one I particularly liked. The model was quite relaxed during this pose and consequently I was able to relax as well. It shows, I think.

“Dennis” 
Just a quick sketch today of a gentleman who poses for my group. Dennis is a loyal model who shows up rain or shine. Without models like him, we wouldn’t be able to continue our little life drawing group. Models are hard to find and we can’t let them know enough how much they are appreciated.
