Unless otherwise indicated, all posted images were drawn in either room #22 or room #23 of the Schott Center in Santa Barbara, CA, the earliest pieces dating back to the fall of 2007. Poses range in length from 45 seconds to twenty minutes. Most were were drawn with some form of charcoal on butcher paper, and are roughly 3' x 4'. There's some graphite as well, and some ink sketches, which tend to be a little smaller. All images are also clickable for a closer view.
