few studies

Here are a few studies, mostly in conte on A3.

This is from Nov last year. The rest are recent

I can't trace the ref sources at the moment, but as always, I'm deeply thankful to the photographers and models for helping me with my education. Posted under Fair Use guidelines.

Video - Drawing a tangled-up pose

15 min (narrated) video of drawing a tangled-up pose, using Mypaint (drawing/painting software). The demo is slightly faster than real time (which was approx. 20 mins), in order to minimize file size. Ref by J L Anil Kumar, subject is Sandhya.
