Figure Studies

A few quick nude studies of a lovely model. I hired her for two 3 hour sessions. The painting above was done during daylight hours and as it is staying light longer we were able to work until almost 8:30 tonight.  After it got too dark the lights were turned on for the pose below. I really only had about an hour on this one, and would have liked to push it a bit more and fix the drawing- her head is a little big. It is a bit  symmetrical but I am fond of the Art Deco feel.
