A follow-up, on those water-inspired images. Pastel - a medium from which I'd like to move on.

The top sketch I'm a little iffy about, but I post it because I always think it's funny when a drawing so clearly recalls the work of someone else. (There was a post a while back that for some weird reason made me think of Carl Larsson.) This one here makes me feel like I'm looking at the figure drawings of Robert McCloskey, author of Blueberries for Sal and Make Way For Ducklings. The particular quality of line and drawing has something to do with it, but there's also the fact that the model has a lot of Sal's features, and -- correct me if I'm wrong -- Sal's mother's expression.

Anyway, this was the last class of the semester. Let the Jonesing begin.

Not much web-worthy from this last lifedrawing class. Peaked early in the 45 second range.

Also, in preparation for a possible upcoming show with a "Water" theme, I went down to the beach. Here is the yield.
