Hoopes

A figure drawing from a few weeks back. done with Conte on 18"x24" drawing pad. Conte is nice to draw with but very hard to erase so it's tricky, whereas the Nu Pastel I usually use is easily smudged and also easy to erase but harder to control. So I've always been torn on which to use, this one turned out good because I just sat down and drew it, instead of building it slowly with layers. So I have just started doing a combination of the two. I will show one of them pretty soon.

*For coworkers, this is not Mike Hoopes, just a model that happens to be his doppleganger.
