FIGURE DRAWINGS  

Drawing from a live model is the perfect discipline to keep an artist's skills finely tuned.
I make every effort to attend the Tuesday evenings in Canmore when a group of artists 
assembles to work from a hired model.

The drawings below are the longer poses, from these evenings.

I photograph him in my studio.

First, I block in all the elements

then, I manipulate his features

and develop them to a likeness.

Next, I refine the background

and finally, the finished portrait.
