Pastel on black pastel paper
This was an experiment
– pastel on black pastel card, using a lot of light ochres and tangerines as
flesh tones. I allowed the black card to take the shadow areas. All
the colours behind her are singing out loudly over the black surface.
It's good to let the lovely vibrant pastels glow like this!
After 60 nudes Jeanie will end this series on Feb 29th 2020. There will be occasional posts on this blog - some nudes, some other things. To mark the end of the series Jeanie has produced another video encouraging everyone to draw. It includes her drawing a 2-minute sketch of her husband Nick. Take a look on the link above
Nude a day - ending in three days!
