Ariel and I have been taking figure drawing classes the last month or so. Here are two of my favorites, a bit smudgy since that's what happens when you roll up charcoal covered paper. Check out Ariel's blog for a similar post with his drawings.

Really nice drawings!
I'm impressed.

Have you tried laying down a ground of charcoal and lifting it in areas with a chamois cloth? This can be such a magical technique to use- lots of fun.

Your mysterious news can't be all THAT crazy if you can still draw so well- I'd expect a lot of violent slashy lines, stains and paper tears at the very least...

p.s.
The technique I was trying to describe involves covering the entire paper with charcoal first...my last post wasn't very clear- though you probably already figured out what I was trying to say.

Hey Ross, very nice naked drawin's! you have a really great way of shadowing contours and the anatomical form shows through. The renderings have a depth and a relaxed feeling about them and the hands are well done. It is good work!
Whatchadoin'? We are waiting for news on pins and needles so PLEASE let us know something!
