Use of Colour

I started to experiment a bit with colour on some of the shorter poses, and one of my favourite pictures is below - I think the colours I chose work well together and it is a confidently drawn piece.


Having made this picture, I began to try out using colours in other ways....


This was a softer image using lighter pastels and pencils combined. I was being less free with this image and went on to produce a full colour image of the models body which was very clean lined (see picture in 'Evaluation'). I like how neat it is but it doesn't have much personality or life in it. I do however like the use of colour.


I enjoyed making this drawing very much, I loved using such bright colours and chose them because I was hoping to show the brightness of the lighting that was in the room. This was a 15 minute drawing and I think I captured the model quite well - perhaps a bit slim on detail on the right side of the stomach, but as a whole I like the image.
