I went back to conte pastel for last week's session - I think shaking up the medium every so often helps to keep things fresh! First-time model Silvi held some great poses.

It's taken me a couple of weeks to put these online! A lovely session with Ana modelling. This time I felt a bit more comfortable using conte pastel to draw.

Last week I had a good life drawing session with lots of dynamic and interesting poses. I drew in conte pastel for the first half, which was an attempt to shake me up a bit and loosen my drawings. Though everything felt a bit messy I think it was good as an exercise....

I felt I got back into the swing of things last night. I worked hard to stay loose, mainly by holding the conte pastel / pencil flat rather than the way I'd typically hold a pencil.

Shockingly, I haven't been to life drawing since November! I felt a bit rusty, but it was a good session.
