Nude on a Blue and Green Scarf - oil pastel by Connie Chadwell







I decided it would be fun to pose the model in front of a painting, instead of just a blank wall. This was a very difficult pose to hold because of the twisted position of the model's neck, so we worked in short increments. This painting is from the drawing I did of this pose. I'm such a fan of models - with all the things we ask them to do, they are almost always patient and pleasant and a joy to work with.






This painting is on Pastelbord and is 7 x 5". Thanks for looking!
