Tearing forms, ink, reed pen/twigs

Life drawing and painting, focused on tearing forms from paper to capture mass and volume of short poses, followed by corrections and enhancement with ink and reed pen/twigs. Each pose was held for ten minutes, which consequently gave one just ten minutes to assess the pose, tear a form, paste it to a background and sketch with ink. Paper tearing forms and ink on paper.
