This drawing is one of those "catch them while you can" drawings. Not often enough do I have a live model all to myself! Alexis is a model I've drawn from before, but this time it wasn't in a group setting. For this fun drawing, I used acrylic with touches of oil pastel and charcoal. The acrylic did 95% of the work in this piece. It's done on acrylic paper by Strathmore - a really tough support that I love - has a definite pattern to the paper that really works when using acrylic and I even like it for other media (obviously). The size of the paper was originally 12 x 12" but I cut it down to about 11 x 6" and did something else with the rest of it. One of the most fun things is using scrap pieces to do something experimental - and sometimes it actually works! Thanks so much for stopping by!
