Torso in charcoal
This is the latest of a series of charcoal drawings I have been doing since July this past year. This one is around 22" x 30". I am trying to concentrate on modeling the structure of the muscle, skin, bone etc. and the attitude (generally subtle) of the figure.
There is a larger image on my blog: http://thomasindewhurst.blogspot.com/

Nicely classic,Thomasin. Beautiful work! The anatomy is there, but not "anatomy study".

Thank-you Julie. I had tried to give it more depth than just being a study - to get the feeling across of my responses to the form and slight movement of the torso.

Vine charcoal ? On what paper ? Maybe that's trying to dissect this very nice drawing, and spoil the mystery of it . . . but inquiring minds always go to the "nuts 'n' bolts".
Very sculptural !

Hi Richard,
Thanks for your questions and kind comments. I used a charcoal pencil and some vine charcoal as well as some white pastel. I used a heavy watercolour paper to draw on because it feels like drawing on card and has a good texture and takes a lot of rubbing, erasing etc.

Beautiful Thomasin, I really like returning to my roots and just starting over, discovering my strengths and deficiencies. It is a wonderful and relaxing process for me. It appears that you are enjoying too!
