Figure drawing was my first love :) I don’t get to do it that much anymore but I really love a good charcoal sketch for a solitary figure. I have been holding onto this for about a year now and I think it is time for him to find a home. Note: this is out of a large sketchpad and the top is perforated so can become a straight line, or you can leave the remaining frills. Up to your taste and how you want to frame it! This should be framed though as it is charcoal so very delicate!

Note: Studio sketches have been worked from and will often have imperfections: fingerprints and/or smudges, holes from the pins that held them to the wall, tiny splatters of paint, pieces of tapes or ripped edges. The sketches have often been worked from for larger paintings or used as inspiration for other work; the imperfections give the work character and show that they were well loved, used, and present in the artist’s studio.
