Happy Halloween: Figure Drawing Date with a Skeleton

For a pre-Halloween figure drawing session, the model posed with a skeleton as if they were on a date, making small talk on the sofa. While the model and the rest of the group took a lunch break I continued drawing the skeleton, who needed no break and continued posing nicely.

I think we had about an hour and a half on this pose with the model, plus my time with Mr. Skeleton. I wish I’d sketched in a bit of the background so that their funky sofa wasn’t just floating in space.

Thanks Sharon for commenting. I’m curious if you were referring to the drawing or the pose or both as “unusual.” And of course you’re right–it’s pretty uncommon to find a naked lady hanging out with a slightly lecherous skeleton!
