Celebrating the human form

There is nothing I love better than being in an artists studio with an easel in front of me, charcoal or paintbrush in my hand and a model in the centre of the room, ready to pose. For me, life doesn’t get better than this.

Here are some of the results of some of these moments featuring my friend and model Sean, a very competent artist in his own right.

Drama of Black and White

As much as I love colour, I’m just as partial to monochrome. I love  the drama that comes from stark contrasts . As I’ve mentioned before, I’m not really one for subtlety. I’m a woman who relishes being able to hit people in the stomach with a gut reaction.

I’d love to hear your reaction.
