"MI" Shoulder View and Almost Dead






“MI” Shoulder View and Almost Dead
He posed today for the drop in life drawing session I attend on Saturdays.
After providing some shoulder and back poses, he spent the last hour of the session on his back. He was on his back for way to long. I had time to place him in the islands. I had time at the end to do a quick sketch in ink of him almost dead.

  1. I love the frontal one best , although they are all excellent but the frontal, you can see the Islands of Solitudes, and there I would like on my back as well and never ever leave

    1. Too much time leads back to the same backdrop: the islands. On my back or drawing them from memory, I’d rather be there too.
      Thank you

  3. Yes, these are very good.
    I especially like the centre one too. The Islands of Solitude in the background put me in mind of a glorious sunny day.
    I would happily strip off and join him there...LOL:D
