Figure sketch by Louise Naimian

Wonderfully tasteful and the sort of nude painting I like. I really like the subtle skin tones and the loosely drawn outline. A great sketch!

Yes, very well drawn Louise and tasteful at the same time.

So well put together Louise

Thanks Thea, Alan and Dennis. This sketch came about after reading the interesting comments left under Tony's 'red jumper' painting. I haven't done any proper life drawing for years but do feel that it's a very good discipline when done properly. This is just a very quick sketch done this morning as much for Tony's challenge as for myself to see if I could! Reds next on the list. I do like the site for suggesting these ideas which I can't resist trying.

Very tasteful Louise, I really like it.

Hurray, thanks for participating.<br />seem to be more figure work posted!

Oh no, we&#39;re not being challenged to produce figures now are we? Completely out of my comfort zone but I know I won&#39;t be able to resist! This is very good Louise, you are very clever at getting a realistic pose with very few lines. Looking forward to seeing your ladies in red!

Thank you Christine, Val and Tony. Perhaps I should sketch David Beckham in his famous pose, a change from all the ladies and for the ladies here..LOL

Love the lines - painted so confidently as always Louise

Thank you Michael. this took very little time as you can probably tell. I messed up her arm I know!

please sketch a becham or maybe a chippedale if possible ( showing my age ) to redress the male female imbalance<br />get the ladies inspired

Lovely lady Louise! Ok where&#39;s the fellas?

Love your figure painting Louise and this is no exception, great work

Thanks Tony, Carole and Glennis. I&#39;m tempted now..
