My model came with this pose Modonna used for one of her albums. Originally it was intented to do square sized pastels because I happen to have 4 spare square frames but today I saw a greater scheme I had to work out first.

I saw this great vintage picture of a nude on the roof top of an open van and I liked the styled planes it already showed: the squares in the open door, some round ones in the model and some great diagonals.

This drawing ‘Sans Titre – 08-08-19’ depicts Lily Elsie, Edwardian actress and singer. For obvious reasons liked the hair volume, its curls and plains.

Surrealistic nude graphite pencil drawing of Julia

Last year I used dancer Julia Gómez Avilés as a model. Next to being a wonderful person for an artist she is ideal because of her flexibility.
