In the studio in spite of the heat!

I worked on this and two other sketches today in my studio.  I like how the neck and the hair fade into one another in this sketch.  The ear may be a little large.

Sketch for the next drawing in the weight series

I am beginning my thought process for the next drawing in the weight series.  Here is a sketch I completed recently.  The figure is using one hand to hold up the rock instead of two.  Some questions come to mind.  Does she look like a super hero holding up the rock?  Should I make it look like the rock is falling or tipping over?  I will probably do another version of this concept. 

Sketch Book in April

Detail of the face.  

 Full Drawing.  I decided not to put the hard exterior line on this drawing. 

 This drawing has the hard exterior line. 

These are found images that I drew in my sketch book recently.  The exhibition in December and January went well, but took up so much time and effort that I did not get to my studio for a while.  I'm back!  I am playing with the exterior contour line: whether to use it or not.
