I changed the medium I use at last night’s life drawing session at Swansea Print Workshop. I’ve been using conté crayons but I switched to Caran d’Ache Neopastels. They’re so soft and buttery, gorgeous to use. I also changed the paper, preparing some vintage paper with a pale blue acrylic ground, which really complemented the pastels. These are 2 ten minute poses. I cropped the figure on the left as I don’t want to risk being censured for publishing a nude. There’s a much more prudish attitude to art than there was back in the heady early days of MySpace. Remember that?

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D View more posts
