Only one model for a dozen of students : not enough space to study portraiture and the elements composing a visage, but still enough to study Human figure and try to capture an expression.
The model is very graceful, and able to stand the pose for very long time... as the time passes, her expression was becoming serious, somehow projecting herself in her thoughts.
Here she is, wearing a deep yellow shirt, surrounded by a dark background, as if she was part of a play of contrasts, gravely observing October times passing by.

Another two weeks with this model - let's see where the next attempt will bring us...
