Last week at the Yellow Barn, we were graced with a fit and angular male model, Wayne, who maintained a very difficult pose with few breaks.
I chose somewhat unconventional compositions. For the first, I was seated at roughly eye level, looking from the top of his head down the length of his prone body (he was laying atop a series of folding tables that seemed none too stable).

For the second, which was done more quickly than the first, I sat behind Wayne, a vantage from which his body looked like a lanky wedge.

From whatever angle, Wayne is a wonderful model.
Really great! Love your choice of colors. Fun, fun, fun.
Thanks, Mary! They were a lot of fun to do — and especially since I didn’t have to clean up oils afterwards! I do need to get back to my oils & gouache, though. By the way, saw some wonderful glass things in Santa Fe — will be sending them to you.
