Suzanne_11November2010





Suzanne was the model and the theme was drawing in the style of other artists.

The first is charcoal and conte in the style of Dufy, i.e. strong black outline, filled with bright colours.

Next is Schiele, i.e. a spidery line with just a few splashes of colour. This was pen with conte.

Finally this was a longer pose. The aim here was to almost merge the figure into the background, in the manner of Seurat. Conte was used again with some chalk and charcoal.
