Two hours too much

Still having problems painting a nude in the same position for two hours. I am using Arches 300g, rough watercolour paper and haven't gotten used to it yet. It takes the pigment so well and dries so slow, I need to adjust. I can also blame myself for my lack of skill. Here are two preliminary sketches I did before getting it wrong with the watercolour.

    Don´t be so naughty, where is the watercolor? I´m pretty sure it´s not bad at all, but as usual you´re not showing it.The sketches are fantastic

    1. It would be very naughty indeed to show such a bad piece of work in public! ;)

    Don´t be a liar, I can´t belive that.

    1. It's true! The next two hour pose will be great though. ;)
