Enter my graphite pencil drawing ‘Louise Brooks – 11-10-22’. After an interlude of two drawings of my regular model and a nude it was time for something different.

This graphite pencil drawing ‘Model Session – 06-10-22’ stems from an earlier session. However, I had a model session with my favorite model on the 6th of October 2022.
This graphite pencil drawing ‘Art Deco Nude – 02-10-22’ follows after the (tentative) completion of my Darja Collins series.
This graphite pencil drawing ‘Darja Collin – 29-09-22’ follows directly after the previous one of her. Sometimes a beauty by the likes of her simply can’t let go.
This graphite pencil drawing ‘Darja Collin – 27-09-22’ is a natural follow-up of her portrait a week ago.
This graphite pencil drawing Darja Collin – 20-09-22 follows Art Deco Nude – 16-09-22. Still Deco-ish but I decided to grant her a series of her own.
Graphite pencil drawing ‘Art Deco Nude – 16-09-22’ follows after two impressionist interludes.
This graphite pencil drawing Park Hoog Oostduin – 14-09-22 follows directly after Het Sterrenbos – 12-09-22. Suddenly I found myself embracing the love for drawing trees again.
My graphite pencil drawings Het Sterrenbos – 12-09-22 and Clingendael – 31-08-22 belong together.
This graphite pencil drawing ‘Art Deco Nude – 05-09-22’ follows up ‘The fabulous burki lippe and wassenaar trio – 02-09-22’.
Ladies and Gentlemen, here is the legendary Fabulous Burki, Lippe and Wassenaar Trio, performing live on stage at The Stamboom! There you have it, something different. For Milko Lippe, a dear friend of mine.
Today, the last day of August, I went to Clingendael with my dear friend Michelle. We were out there to take some landscape pictures and to do some drawing.
Graphite Pencil drawing ‘Art Deco Nude 29-08-22’ is the next one in line after ‘Sienna – 25-08-22’.
This graphite pencil drawing ‘Sienna – 25-08-22’ follows up my previous one ‘Model Study, after Laure Albin Guillot – 25-08-22’.
A quick model study, inspired by a photograph by Laure Albin Guillot.
Another graphite pencil drawing ‘Art Deco Nude – 23-08-22’, inspired by again a smashing picture by Walter Bird.
This drawing ‘Art Deco Nude – 20-08-22’ is the third one in a row inspired by a Walter Bird photograph.
This graphite pencil drawing ‘Roundism – 17-08-22’ follows its angular version of two days ago. Surely Walter Bird’s reference photograph was good enough to draw two versions from it.
After the last Roundism drawing I immediately wanted to do another one. It became ‘Art Deco Nude – 15-08-22’.
And now for something completely different: Roundism again. After ‘Art Deco Nude – 11-08-22’ it was time to unleash my Faber-Castell Pitt Graphite Matt pencils on Roundism.
Art Deco Nude – 11 -08-22 is my third graphite pencil drawing done with my Faber-Castell Pitt Graphite Matt pencils. A couple of days after the second but I had a busy schedule of meetings, uploading and painting of course.
This graphite pencil drawing ‘Art Deco Nude – 06-08-22’ follows one day after the first, done with my new pencils. In fact, immediately after the completion of the first one I started the second in my studio at Brugman Art. However, finished a day later but within an hour in total.
This Art Deco Nude as theme is not something new, the materials are. The last decade I have been using mostly Bristol paper for my graphite pencil drawings.
This graphite pencil drawing ‘Solarized Roundism – 01-07-22’ is a welcome change from oil painting. After the completion of ‘Geesje Kwak and the Secret of the Universe – 28-06-22’ it was time to return to sketching.
Finally, a new drawing and it is a new Solarized Roundism. The last solarized one I did was ‘Risque – 31-03-22’. Graphite pencil drawings do not come popping up weekly anymore since I put my mind to oil painting back in February. Occasionally one is fininished as a result of some spare time I have, waiting for my students at Brugman Art. So is this one.
It was some time ago when I did my last graphite pencil drawing in the Risque series.
While creating my recent series of oil paintings suddenly I felt it was time to have a new model session.
Once in a while I get that itchy feeling again that makes me want to turn to roundism. The last one by that title I made half a year ago.
Another variation in the Risque Series. After my last graphite pencil drawing ‘Risque – 22-01-22’ I was searching for something new.
This graphite pencil drawing ‘Family – 25-01-22 (sold)’ is a commissioned piece, just as the last commission ‘Opa – 14-04-21 (sold)’.
