12-Hour Piece

Probably my best piece all year. This was done on a massive scale of about 3' x 3'. A LOT larger than I am used to. This was obviously a nude model. This picture took up two whole studio classes of 6 hours each, so I guess you could say this took me 12 hours to complete. It is a pure mixture of white conte crayon, compressed charcoal, vine charcoal, and I believe some black conte crayon is in there also. I'm pretty proud of this piece and sure a lot more could be done to it, but 12 hours pretty much blew my mind as it is the longest I've ever worked on a single piece of art in traditional media. The other two below shots are just details of course, but click on them all to enlarge them and take a better look!
