Purple Rock



Purple Rock

A blanket over cushions, of course, became a comfortable rock. Same old theme. Would have placed her on a table in a bar. If only I had had more time.. Or maybe I should have drawn in the rest of the studio behind her, placing her where she was?
Anyway, this is my sketch of “D” in a session with her last week.  “D” is one of the few models I regularly sketch that maintains a smile throughout most of her poses.

18”x 12” ink and watercolor

  1. I definitely think you made the right choice...placing her on the rocks...gave us a sense of summer in the cold of November!
    All these beautiful bright colours...I can almost feel the warmth of the sun, although I can't see actually see it.
    Brilliant!! :))

    1. Have to find another theme though. Every time the model reclines onto pillows on the stage, the distant shore too easily appears behind.
      Thank you
