Figure Drawing 14/03/2015

Here it is another figure drawing at the Florence Academy of Art. I tried sanguigne in pencil and a red pastel in stick. Here is work in progress after about an hour.

Life Drawing at Florence

Life drawing session at Florence art Academy!! I prepared a toned sheet with a watercolour payne's gray basis.

And the final result:

The model posed for a couple of hours. I used graphite, sanguigne and sepia. I have to pay more attention to the lower part of the body, and foreshortening in general. But fun with some color compared with the use of sole graphite.

Montalbano

Studio del caro Montalbano con sanguigna e seppia (luglio 2013).

Another sketch of the Monte Albano done with sepia, charcoaland sanguigne by cretacolor (two pages of a A4 sketbook). I tried to render near - medium - far distance with these colors, also dosing the pressure (july 2013).
