I really like this profile sketch I did at last week’s life drawing session at Swansea Print Workshop. I think I’ll develop this into a linocut, I could have an interesting time carving the hair and beard. Maybe I’ll use a bigger piece of lino than I have for my previous ones, to cut more details into the hair. This was a 15 minute pose and I drew onto a heavyweight Waterford paper with graphite.
I’ll be running a weekend linocut course based on Dewi Bowen and Olwyn Pritchard’s book, “Hunting The Wild Megalith” on February 28th and March 1st at Swansea Print Workshop. Please click here to find out more.
