Figure Drawing 12-14-10

Here are some sketches from tonight's figure drawing session. We won't have anymore until after the new year now...couple weeks off might make me pretty rusty.

Portrait study

Here's a portrait study I did this weekend. Oil on linen. 10x12, Zorn Palette (Titanium white, Yellow ochre, Cadmium red, Ivory black). It is based loosely on the pencil drawing I did the other day. After looking at the sketch, I decided to change some things about the pose to make it look more relaxed before I painted it.
