Anita's Back!

Anita's back from her late summer perambulations and it is a pleasure to be working with her again. But first a little something (12"x18", pastel on Rives) I had been working on from figure sketches done before she left:

There's still more to do before I take it to anything larger.

(more below the fold)

Anita as usual was quite on her game but alas I was not; I haven't done any life drawing for a couple of weeks (and had enjoyed the night before a little too much perhaps) so it took awhile to get rolling. But these two (50x65 mm, conte on pastel paper) came out OK I think...
