jmarie and an elegant chair . . .
This is a practice sketch for one of my chair paintings. When I saw the photo below by the artist Raphael Soyer it made me want to continue my exploration of painting in black and white (although this painting was done in color). I love the patterns and textures of the garments as they look here in black and white.
As shown in this little sketch I would like to paint patterns and textures. This painting by Soyer would definitely be one of my 'green box' paintings (I wish I had painted that).

Oh...this is going to be so good! I really like the clothing on his painting too. You draw hands so well. I think they are so hard to do. I like the patterns you are planning Myra.
Love these sketching, you create great body movement !
What a wonderful flow to this drawing.I think the angle of her head against the shoulder line is marvelous.
I love Soyers work. Our local museum has two pieces. They put them in storage and caused lots of spluttering on my part.
Myra, I love this drawing of the woman and chair. It's beautiful. Good idea to do a series like this. I love her layers of pattern. Marie
