LARA

Hey again! Past four weeks I've been studying at LARA, working on my drawing. Tiring, but oh so worth it. Definitely feel that this is the right track to be on. Below are the 6 pieces I did in that time, 3 cast drawings, 1 cast painting and two long pose life drawings. Really wish I'd had more time for the painting and I'm not as happy with the early casts now as I was when I started them, but apparently that's a good sign you're understanding more as an artist : )

Anyway, less talk, more art. HB pencil, various charcoals and even some oil paints on a couple of types of paper and a stretched canvas.







Am off to South Africa this week, really looking forward to seeing some sunshine and getting some landscape painting done. Will be staying with Major Phillip Erskine, who is quite the painter himself, so should be quite the trip! Woohoo!
