Twisting torso

I was exploring various body types, how each fulfills some artistic need or the other, regardless of age or gender... and was drawn to this ref, especially how the pelvis is twisted in relation to the upper torso (which is viewed side-ways) giving rise to a seemingly exaggerated upper-lower body width difference. I also loved quick-sketching the golden sheen on her dress.

A3, a combination of watersoluble pastels and regular ones.
