Woman and Her Chihuahua, charcoal, 2010

In Portrait with a Hat tonight we had a model who posed with her pet Chihuahua named Zootsie. The model wore a fox stole around her neck- no hat- and the dog had a fur stole as well. I did not have my paint box but one of the students said I should be working on this, too. So I rummaged up paper and charcoal and did this 18×24 sketch.

edit: to identify the model as Trish, who is a regular source of inspiration for our class.
