Two Women ASL July 2007





This was a two day pose. The blond was a professional actress, and told me about all the movie stars she worked with , such as George Clooney. It was difficult to capture her , and after the first session, I wiped the canvas clean since I did not feel it resembled her. The next day, I spent a lot of time to drawing her in burnt umber, and then I committed to colors after I felt the proportions were good. She had a constant grin, and that defined her to me, as did her unworldly preternaturally bluish gray eyes.

The other woman had droopy sleepy eyelids, and a rich brown orange flesh tone. Together, they provied a fine contrast of feminine types.
