Bringing Props into Drawing

Today's was the penultimate life drawing session of the year. There were several props around the room including a drum when we arrived. This allowed for a new range of poses. I experimented with adding inks and watercolour today. 

I think the colour really adds emotion to the pieces. I particularly like how the colour follows the line of the pen, outlining the drawing. This adds emphasis to the exterior pen line. 
The piece below is my last page from today. I think the juxtaposition of the larger drawing next to the smaller is very successful. Particularly with the different use of inks. The right gives off a calmer air that the left with connotes a more distressed subject.
