Our model last week at figure drawing was an artist with native indian blood. Of course, like most of us, she also had blood of other nationalities running through her veins. Just the same, I decided to accentuate her native ancestry in my pastel portrait of her. She had a very calm and centered way about her and I tried to capture that as well. I chose mostly complimentary colors in this piece to add a little zing.
