Though you can't really tell from my sketches, she wore different vintage fur coats for these two poses. And for the second pose, at my suggestion, she picked a book to read, which gave her greater focus for that pose.Jean Spitzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13520415864511680025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596223475426533484.post-52490334433304820522011-02-03T18:42:28.167-06:002011-02-03T18:42:28.167-06:00Both are nice.
