Here’s another page of drawing I did at last week’s life drawing session. It’s a practice piece where I tried sketching different bits of the model for practice. Her hand was particularly difficult because of a lot of jewellery and she was clutching a handkerchief. The foot was much easier to draw. I used a variety of media; compressed charcoal, willow charcoal, carbon, white oil pastel and graphite block onto a sheet of canvas prepared with a yellow ochre oil bar to break the tyrrany of the white.
Today was horrible outside, cold and rainy, so I made a proper Winter pud for Husb and Teenage Niece’s dessert, a steamed pineapple and golden syrup sponge pudding. With fresh pineapple. Which counts towards our five a day. So it’s healthy really.


Delicious !!!
It was, lol
Love the foot and the way you’ve used the charcoal
Thank you – always good to practice hands and feet 🙂
Great foot sketch! And your fruit pud looks super yummy!
Thank you 😀
I like John’s suggestion of the mixed fruit! lol
Lovely foot! I really enjoy all of your paper/color additions to the page to break up the white. It certainly makes the page less intimidating!
Keep the comfort food coming. 🙂
oh dear, the comfort food is piling on the pounds 😦
The yellow in the drawing is exquisite. And I really would like to eat the pineapple dessert. 😉
Thank you 🙂
The pudding looks great. The drawing’s not bad either.
haha thank you 🙂
You do great feet, and obviously great puddings too!
Thanks 🙂
If you had a mixed fruit pud you could probably manage all five!
Good thinking
