A Colorful Little Nude - watercolor nude

This quickly done little nude was painted with Inktense sticks that I washed over with a water brush        

pen, just perfect for life drawing groups - no messy water containers to worry with.  And of course, I see all the things I could have labored over, but didn't have the time - a blessing for me, really, since I tend to kill drawings with overworking.  This piece is about 11 x 5".  Thanks for looking!

Watercolor Nude - original watercolor painting

This painting is done on watercolor paper from a little 8 x 5" sketchbook.  It's really handy to keep in my bag for sketches.  I just happened to have it with me at a drawing session and was able to put it to use on this quick little drawing.  Thanks for visiting my blog!

Seated Blue Nude - original watercolor nude

The paper is actually more white, although the color of the figure is pretty much correct - can't have everything right, I guess - at least in my photography.  This figure was painted very quickly on 8 x 6" mixed media paper.  Just trying to capture the moment with this model and I think I succeeded - makes me happy.  Thanks for stopping by!

Blue Nude - original watermedia nude drawing

This sketch is a bit brighter in real life, but alas, my photography.  On this one, I used blue watercolor sticks with touches of black on 8 x 6" mixed media paper.  The model has a tattoo that I didn't have time to show, so I just indicated it with a couple of lines. When I draw a bigger version, though, I intend to include it. Thanks so much for visiting my blog!

The Thursday Nude - original watermedia drawing of a nude

This little study of the model was great practice and I never seem to get enough of that!  I used a Derwent Intense crayon with a watercolor brush on Yupo.  It's about 7 x 6".  Thanks for visiting my blog!
