Olympia – 22-03-19

cubistic nude pastel drawing

Before last Tuesday’s model session I thought of a great pose I instructed to my model.

Model session – 14-02-19

expressionistic nude pastel drawing

Last session with my model I wanted to have her pose a little bit more risqué but counterbalance it by keeping the hatched strokes rather rough than to finepolish them into tonal matching strokes that would approach realism too much.

The object was to do a pastel drawing similar to ‘model session – 17-01-19’ but to keep the hatched strokes rather wide. I also wanted to combine more complementary colour combinations in order to get a greyish look while on the other hand those hatched strokes look very saturated up close.
