Sketch by Sarah Sullivan of a woman with presence

A Woman with Presence

We had a particularly expressive model today at our figure drawing class. She radiated her presence and this made capturing both her looks and personality easier than normal. But conveying the model’s mood was not the lesson’s purpose, the purpose was to show the angles, bends, folds, and roundness of the figure using line.  On this last sketch of the day I included gouache paint along with pastel line.
