I'm not sure what happened with the left hand, all those messy blotches were not my doing. Maybe I used another sheet in my sketch pad on top of this sketch before the colors were fully dry.

This was painted at the Tuesday sketch session, and it was not a great night for me. Way too tired from the Daylight Savings time change and lack of sleep, everything seemed to be going poorly. This sketch would not cooperate. It wasn't until the last minute that I put in the details in the face and pulled it all together. And much to my surprise, looking at this sketch a day later, I actually like the face a lot. This goes to show that one should trust the marks one makes without over-thinking them. I got this last bit of advice from Greg Manchess a few weeks ago and he was absolutely right.

This was my second attempt at this pose. The first, started in watercolor was quickly becoming a disaster with no hopes of saving and the clock was ticking. I started over with a quick pencil sketch and a few washes thrown in in the last two minutes of the pose. I wish I'd started this way sooner so that I could render more with the colors, but oh well.

Back to some new work. This was painted at the Jazz & Sketch session on Tuesday of this week. Still a bit rusty from taking a week off, but not as much as I thought.
