Here’s the last pose from the recent life drawing session at Swansea Print Workshop, an hour long. I decided to go for a portrait because I really like faces in profile. I worked with Caran D’Ache NeoPastels onto vintage paper prepared with some left-over acrylic paint in a dusty pale blue. I don’t like working directly onto white and the paint, applied with a squeegee, is often mottled and interesting in its own right. This is a pretty good likeness, I’m pleased with it.
