Last Thursday it was time for my regular model to sit for me in my studio. I keep a clean blanket for her she can sit on.

Model session – 29-11-18

This evening I had a great session with my main model throughout the years. She is slender, knows what I want and shows dark skin tones, giving my the possibility to fool around with all sorts of colours.

Some months ago I started attending some drawing sessions at Rotterdam where I did short positions again.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream (Roundism – 29-11-17)

Based on a earlier roundism graphite pencil drawing I made this pastel adding the realm of colours. I wanted the woman appear in a kind of midsummernight’s dream with lots of yellow and blues, girded with some purples and pinks.

Roundism – 24-11-17 (sold)

A new graphite pencil drawing in the roundism series in which I experimented with deformations of body shapes with the purpose of keeping the forms as ‘open’ as possible, so all forms can breathe, flowing from one into another.

Model session @ Rotterdam – 19-11-17 (sold)

Yesterday’s session at Rotterdam offered Gabriëlle, the model of that Sunday afternoon. She had great hip bones and was slender, thus showing great angles and triangles with her body.

Model session 2 @ Rotterdam – 19-11-17

Short positions at live model sketching took me back to reinvent my way rendering human bodies and together with my new found Pastelmat by Clairefontaine I was able to experiment with new ways.
