White Legs
ink and pastel
30.5 x 45.7 cm (12" x 18")

This drawing was done with inexpensive pastels, so that it has less colour density and vibrancy than my other recent drawings, which have been done with better quality pastels. Colour, however, isn't everything.

The drawing was sprayed with a fixative. This brought out the underlying ink drawing, and has given the drawing a slightly harder edge than it had before it was sprayed.

The model has an aversion to sunlight, hence her pale skin.
