M.

graphite, ink, charcoal, and conté
12.25" x 11" (31.5 cm x28 cm)


The model for the drawing was a young student.

The drawing was done on watercolour paper, which is rather unsympathetic to charcoal and conté. This accounts for the rough appearance of the shading.

The foreshortened hand and forearm were a particular problem, and still do not look quite right.
