ABOUT: She has been one of my regular models for years, and is a sheer pleasure to work with. She has a well-proportioned strong body, and the steady calm of her personality comes through in Morning. The modest-sized drawing was one of a series that suggested a yoga-like morning practice before a rising sun.
