Unfinished Stories



Unfinished Stories

Almost sketches of poses not lasting long enough to sketch two figures at the same time.  The story(s) lost in warm up exercises for a long pose as husband and wife (I assume) together with their future child.
Sketched them one night back in March in a stepped lecture hall. I’m pretty sure they are now three, with more exciting stories and even less time to hold poses like these.

  1. Bonjour cher Anthony,

    J'adore ce croquis avec la présence de ce couple rempli d'amour et d'espoir... Cela a dû être très intéressant de pouvoir croquer ces futurs parents.
    Aujourd'hui, poseraient-ils encore avec le bébé ?...

    Je vous souhaite une très belle journée créative.
    Gros bisous 🌸

    1. I do wish the poses had been longer. Sketching in two figures in the time usually spent on one was a challenge. It would be wonderful to have them pose again now with a child… If only I was still in Edinburgh where this session took place.
      Thank you

    1. The chance to in essence draw a whole family doesn’t often occur. It was exciting, and yes, beautiful.
