I got the chance to visit the Bodies Exhibit after hours and draw from this real human skeleton.

My husband David was kind enough to pose for me while listening to "Ender's Game" on tape for this two-hour study.

"Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God"

This was a 20 minute pose in Richard Hull's figure drawing class. I really liked how the edges turned out.





Here is a drawing by David Kassan of me. Using a product called Pan Pastels, he drew me for a demonstration at the 2010 Portrait Society of America Conference in Washington DC.
