Charcoal Figure Study

Here's a figure study of my son's girlfriend. I plan to do at least two more, if I can get two more people to sit for me. This is not for sale since it will go into a show for June.
Charcoal, 19 x 22"

WHAT are you TALKING about being rusty drawing the figure? This is a STUNNER!

Thanks Martha, but it did feel rusty...

Wow - you are even MORE talented than you let on!! If this felt rusty, I can't wait to see what you do when all lubed up!! (hmm, not sure how that came out, but you get my meaning!) :-) How long did the sitting take? Did you do all you posted during the sitting, or did you finish some of it later? Good thing she had a book - I can't imagine how some models do it. You did a FABULOUS job on this one - such an inspiration you are!!
