Zimbabwean Model

So much fun to draw... and we played Oliver Mtukudzi and Johnny Clegg while we drew, adding to the African feel. 

 10 min quick study
 Decided to concentrate on tonal fields - 20 min
Used Kaye's chamois!  This is rare, to see me smudging!
30 min exploratory line.  Challenging to draw clothing.  Nude is easier!
Wonderful dreads to get lost in

 2 min
 20 min
 1 min - probably my favourite drawing of the morning
 20 min - blind contour next to more studied drawing
 5 min - time over at the end of one of the poses. Can never resist the feet!
 30 min - made him look to young
30 min, and yes, his collar bone was badly broken!

January 2014 drawings

 Trying something new... eye tracking drawing - you don't look at the paper, and just draw where your eye is looking.  Not as successful as Clive Powsey's!
