Lily kneeling
After the fair models, I have drawn lily in a kneeling pose. Her darker skin tones and black hair made a nice contrast. She has the perfect figure for an artist’s model and expressive eyes.

La Rubia Con Ojos Azules
The blonde with blue eyes. Another pastel figure study but this time a standing pose. I use French Sennelier artist’s soft pastels on their own special card which is nice and abrasive so holds the medium well.

Irina
She is a dancer and I have painted her twice before, once in pastel and more recently in acrylics, in ballet poses. She does make an excellent life model too. I use French Sennelier artist’s soft pastels on their own special card which is nice and abrasive so holds the medium well.

Carmen
I have just sold one of my nudes in pastel to the USA via Saatchi Art which has given me the excuse to produce another one and I love drawing the female figure. I use French Sennelier artist’s soft pastels on their own special card which is nice and abrasive so holds the medium well.

La Sirena
Back to acrylics to capture the vibrant colors of the Mediterranean in summer. This is San Pedro, the next cove from my village, Las Negras. I like the yachts off the beach and I enjoy painting boats but the girl in the sea adds, life, human interest and scale to the composition.

On the beach at San Pedro
This is a complete change as I wanted to try out acrylics to capture the strong colors of the seascapes here in the Parque Natural de Cabo de Gata. This is San Pedro beach near Las Negras and on this particular day a Levante breeze livened up the sea which added interest. I was fortunate to have a friend to model for me.

Another in my series of nude pastel figure studies using artist’s Sennelier pastels and their own special paper. A lot of work went into this painting but I am pleased with the result. I particularly liked the pose and expression of my model.

Amanda
All my previous figure studies have been in portrait format so for a change I have used a landscape format for this nude pastel study of Amanda as it suited the pose. I hope you like it.
