I forgot to take a photo of this one from the last session I did. It was pretty dumb of me, since it was my favorite drawing.. It’s ok, I’ll just pretend I got that much better in 2 weeks…
These next drawings are of my friend Nicole, who continues to be my favorite model to draw. The poses she is able to get herself into are some of my favorites.
I am using a fat black Lyra pencil. I’m liking it a lot. It’s got a bit of a feel of the waxy Conte pencils, except without the smudge… Only thing it can improve on is I wish they could go darker. I don’t know if there is a softer version of the colored pencils. I’ll keep a lookout for them.
Compare and contrast the poses between this model and Nicole…….hmmm how can I get her to do those kinds of poses? Enroll her in ballet? I don’t know…
Hands are still my weakness, although I’ve gotten way better at them since I first started saying that…

Geez !
First one’s treatment is mind-blowing, I like it !
I don’t know what is the correct word/expression, but I find it more “offensive” [in a good way] than some of your previous stuff. It has so much personalilty and energy in it.
And, merry X-mas ! ;)
Keep it up, Sergio.

I love your studies man. the way you handle Gestures and lines.
beautiful stuff.
These are extremely nice, I was gonna go to model classes today but they got canceled!
Its been quite a long time since I’ve worked with a similar medium, I usually prefer ballpoint because I can’t erase it and it forces me to draw the correct line from the start. But I love what you’ve done with the shading, so I think I might explore something like that too!
Great stuff!
