We had a ‘Duo Special’ at the weekly live life drawing group. This gave fabulous options for forming a composition and as I’ve been trying to focus on faces and hands, I really enjoyed the position I got to draw from.

2B and 7B and of course my trusty propelling eraser pencil 😂

I was back doing a 3hr watercolour course which is an intense evening but good to learn. Lots of mistakes but that’s the best way to learn… first time using salt when painting!

First week back to live life drawing group and it was good to get the pencils out again.

I know I need to try other mediums at the group…. A watercolour painting to follow from a recent 3 hr course….. but I am enjoying pencils so for the moment, I’m sticking with them.

The final life drawing session of 2024 saw a couple of of 40 minute poses. Tricky angles but enjoyable.

Roll on 2025 when I’m back to the weekly group sessions.
