DONE: Belvedere Torso in Red Chalk

While on vacation two weeks ago, during a long spell of lousy north Ontario weather, I finally sat down and finished the Belvedere Torso I started last Christmas and worked on in Mexico. Red chalk is a pleasure to work in. I quickly rendered the neck and base in a day. The photo doesn't pick up the red and orange tinting of the watercolour paper, for some reason...

More works nearing completion will be illustrated here by the end of the summer!
