My brush stood still ...

My father passed away on the 29th September, it was a sad moment and I joined my family in grief. I am only now starting to find some form of normality,  returning to a sense of balance which allows me to focus on positive moments like my art once again. Here are a few life drawings I did a few weeks back, I enjoyed having only six pastels and a charcoal pen to work with.

    1. Thank you setxu. Yes, the pastels are fun and easier when sketching at speed. I might buy some more pastel sticks very soon. :)
