"Jacob" - portrait drawing from life
Nothing more interesting or challenging than drawing from life. I've participated in life drawing groups for many, many years and I never tire of them. A lot of this piece was done using the side of my oil pastels which contributes to a looser drawing - and I'm so pleased with how this portrait turned out - my approach was to begin with shape and when nearly complete, I added a bit of line. It was fun doing a drawing this way - maybe it's my new method. Painted with Caran d'Ache and Sennelier oil pastels on 5 x 7" Pastelbord. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Looky What I Got Yesterday!
I splurged a little and bought several CrayPas Specialists, some Caran d'Ache Neopastels and a few of my usual Senneliers. So exciting for an oil pastelist! I like to use Caran d'Ache lime green for glazing skin and decided to try a lot of other colors for that purpose just to see how it works out. Much fun ahead!
