I had prepared some cardboard with the dragged backgrounds first. I quite like working onto a coloured ground just to lose all that virgin space first.
They are quite small, just 20cm the largest dimension.

20 minute acrylic sketches
These paintings were done in one session where we did 3 20 minute sketches. Good discipline but it left me wishing I had more time to work into them.

Pastel Portraits
This drawing was done earlier this year at the class. The model was wearing the red and white striped robe so we asked for her to keep it on as a challenge.
I used Conte pastels on Murano paper.
This model always keeps her hair in a turban or wrap so it is always a big part of the drawing.
Here I just used a black conte on a toned Murano paper.
