Belvedere Torso

Work continues on the red chalk version of the Belvedere Torso. I took the drawing with me to Mexico for the holidays and worked on it at the beach! I still need to finish the neck and base area, and then return to drawing with a fine brush to smooth over the transitions from light to dark. I might apply a darker red chalk to highlight the darkest darks.
