I've had this replica mini statue for years. A friend of mine, Margaret, gave it to me for Christmas some time back in the last century, and I've never really known what to do with it. It's adorned various pieces of furniture in homes all over the country, but it's never really had a purpose... until now. She's fabulous to draw!
I used a very soft Derwent pencil, a 6B I think, and followed the flow lines of the body curves. I love the way that the roughness of the sketching paper lends an extra element of texture.
Thank you for all the comments and emails about my little teapot. I think a lot of people felt that they needed a little colour yesterday. So did I!
Hmmm.... I can feel another loose and colourful picture coming on....
Have a lovely day xxxx
