Okay, back to the naked people again. BTW, I went to Hipbone Studio on Wednesday last and drew for three hours from a live model. Her name was Mila and she was a terrific model. She had wide cheekbones and a lovely prominent nose and lips that gave her a very exotic (to my whitebread mind) appeal. Perhaps she was Latin-American. In any event, her body was very athletic and lithe and she struck all sorts of poses that were challenging, to say the least. I'm not so pleased with the drawings I made of her, so I'll post none of them here, but it was great to get back into it again. See my regular blog ("Notes of a Consummate Dabbler" for more on Hipbone.)

Farewell, or as the French say, Au Revoir!
