The drawing done in charcoal — darkest lines — is based on a photo of a model in the pose of the painting. The other two drawings — in graphite — are based on a photo of Degas’ painting.
Human Figure
Studies of the Human Figure
Some of the drawings I’ve done of the human figure, referring primarily to books by Giovanni Civardi on drawing the nude, and the human figure. Compressed charcoal (upper left), graphite (upper right) and white Conte crayon on Strathmore gray-toned paper (bottom right).
Studies of Feet
Upper left drawing is based on an arttutor.com reference photo. The newborn’s feet are drawn from a photo by sippakorn on Pixabay.
