FIGURE 57

Life model in a bra and argyle socks. I had some struggles to get the drawing correct in the beginning. The perspective is looking up from below, which means the head needs to be smaller and the feet larger than they would appear straight on. I am still working at getting more and better color into my paintings, so that becomes a challenge when a lot of time is spent correcting the initial drawing. I'm happy with the results, although I think less (detail) would have been more with her face.
