Drawing in pencil

Comments

Thank you for your kind comment Heather. I just had to improve the photograph as the light changed!

A great pose to take on, and done with your usual excellence.

Lots of difficult angles in this pose Gudrun......no trouble for you!

Lovely work Gudrun, very much reminiscent of Egon Schiele. Great pose too - if I attempted that same pose, I would never get up again!

Great sketch

Thank you all for your appreciation. Frank, I had the opportunity to see some Egon Schiele work a few years ago in an exhibition called Facing the Modern part of the National Gallery where they had a great variety of exciting painters, of which he was one. I think the gesture of this one echoes his fraught output. Oh to visit exhibitions again ....

Terrific pose that makes a super composition and wonderfully drawn of course, Gudrun

This is beautiful, Gudrun. It says so much.

That's a difficult pose to capture Gudrun but you've drawn it excellently.

Complex and splendid Gudrun.

Impressive work!
