Hurry Down the Chimney...Tonight


Christmas party at the drawing class. A good group gathered for coffee, good treats and Erin H as the model. Beautiful black and silver dress and red heels...really nice outfit...a 15 minute sketch does not do it justice. I liked this one with her holding Santa's hat. Conte and pastel. $185.

Tiffany in Black and White


Well, she was dressed in a bold black and white striped sweater. Model Tiffany M is back in Newnan after having been away. Great to have her pose for the drawing class again. This 15 minute conte and pastel was my favorite.

The Cheerleader was Here but She had to Split


Another first for the Monday night drawing class...Cheerleader night. Give me a "C" for conte. I forgot my pastels and only had a small speck of flesh tone to give a little color in the face and hands. This was a 15 minute split...amazing that there are people that can do that..and still walk. Model, Caroline W.

Ballerinas Gone Bad



Not really, but sort of. Erin H as the "Black Swan" tonight at drawing class....lots of fun. Erin and I came up with different pieces of the outfit and it turned out great. Something old, something new, something borrowed and something black. Erin did her own makeup...super! Great poses sealed the deal. Two 15 minute sketches shown, conte and pastel. Look for a painting soon. Most drawings posted are for sale...that includes these two. $225 each.
