*3 heads on the right side from photo reference of my Intermediate Figure Drawing students

Drawn at Sadie Valerie's uninstructed workshop - great fun - wish I got more than about 10 hours on this drawing!  (Charcoal, Graphite and White Chalk on toned paper).

Nathaniel, yesterday St. Patrick's Day at the Henry Yan workshop at AAU.  For once I got to draw and not sub for Henry!!   ( About 1.5 hours in Charcoal, Carbon and white chalk on toned paper).  Note: Nathaniel is missing his "S" Superman tattoo..  Should've drawn it, wimped out..

I have learned that:  If I ride up Kings Mountain road with over 2600 Feet of Elevation change and try to draw after - it will be like... Stick-man.

Here endeth the lesson!
