Charcoal and white charcoal on Canson, 22"x 18"
Here's a sketch from last week, via a group I am lucky enough to paint with on Fridays. The older I get, the slower I seem to get

In a 2-3 hour stint, I can never get far enough in oil to feel like I am doing much useful pracitce.
And wouldn't you know it, I show up with only charcoal, and we have a gorgeous model, rich in color, great clothing. Sigh.
