Art Group meet moves to Thursday

African Lady

The art group will now meet on Thursdays and today was the first day in a long long time that it was held in my home.   We all had a go at drawing a beautiful wooden sculpture of a Masai Lady.   The unknown sculptor has done a fabulous job.  Unfortunately I have not been able to capture how beautiful she is.  You can see my earlier attempt here.

I love both of your attempts! She is beautiful! How did you achieve the wonderful texture of the area next to her on the second drawing?

The flat of a round charcoal stick was used for the background. The texture created is because of the surface of the paper. Glad you like them. Thank you.

marta you do draw very well. this model was sitting very still :P you should see my life drawing efforts. i’m hoping to draw some more from life soon and this time look at the whole figure instead of focusing on the face.
