3rd entry for Aug 10, 2012

These are two 10-minute studies above and five-minute and 3-minute ones below. All are done with hard Nobel charcoal on 18 x 24" sheets of Canson Recycled Sketch paper.
There was a break after the second long pose, so I converted the bench D-  was lying off of into a stonework structure to go with the mood of the evening.
All the while, heavy-metal and rock songs were playing, in keeping with the barbarian theme - making it all a kind of a 'Gesamtnerdwerk '.
