Size: 12x16 in
I was honored to be the guest artist at the New Orleans Drawing Group
on Thursday evening, to have a Q&A after the drawing session. I was
not required to draw, but I decided what the heck why not? It had been a
VEERRY long time since I had done any life drawing so I thought it
would be good for me.I'm so glad I did! The model for the evening, Shadiyah Curione,
had very imaginative and challenging poses. The long pose is above. I
had to go in for dinner for most of it, but I caught the first 20
minutes and the last 15 or so. So this drawing took about 35 minutes.
The light was from a candle near the hand mirror on the table (not
drawn) The light was so amazing, it was hard to do it justice.
