siena

Arches CP 300 gsm, 14" x 10".

this is a life drawing from siena's session. it's done in wolff's carbon pencil; the blue is *real* manganese blue. (i bought up a cache of the paint before it went extinct several years ago.)

again i kept the coloring and modeling as simple as i could, consistent with the drawing, and gave geneva a more monumental weight. she is very slim overall but has strong well formed shoulders. i reckon she could whip me in an arm wrassle.
