Charcoal Figure Sketch

Young girl figure, Charcoal on Pastel Paper 8-1/2 x 13

I was asked to do a woman's figure charcoal drawing.  So, I used my daughter as a model.  It was intended to be added to a group of figure drawings, but the designer felt it was too sexy...the family has 3 teen boys.  So, I get that.

We used a more plain faced, robust, plump figure instead.  :)
