Life drawing extra. Dark Arts 2: In the spirit of Caravaggio

A cool/cold church next to Euston. Great models. Two and a half hours. A Caravaggio theme. Dramatic lighting. Great fun.

‘David’. Two A3 pieces taped together. Charcoal. 15 mins.

Some photos of the brilliant models. Rather strange to be able to take images.

‘Judith beheading Holofernes’ I’ve tried to get the look of concentration on Judith’s face. A3 paper with pencils. 40 mins.

‘David with the head of Goliath’. The pose changed mid way through the drawing making the image better. David now looks away in disgust. It was a great (fake) head. 15 mins.

‘Head of David’.  5 mins. Notice the familiar mistake of the eye being too high, corrected at the last minute.
