Graphite Nudes

In December 2003, I did a series of graphite nudes for a show in Bay St. Louis. The drawings were all small, approximately 3" x 4". I used photographs for my inspiration; some of mine and some of other photographers. The images presented here are giclee prints of the drawings. I chose to post the sepiatone versions; prints in the original color are also available, and a few of the originals have not yet been sold. Email me for a list of what is available.
