    Learning from Gil Elvren - Drawing (+ update)

    Here's the simple pencil sketch to start this new lesson with a pin-ups master illustrator.
    From a reference picture and no tracing.

    Thank You, dear Selby. This is a pin-up style that fits pretty well my drawing capabilities too. I hope to be able to make a nice color illustration out of this nextly.

    Thank You, dear Katie! I was thinking I may do more of these sketches from Elvgren and maybe start a thread, like the one with the silhouettes, where anyone could have fun painting on them ...

    Well done Caesar, he was a great pin up artist, I really like his work.
    Just one question you did sand the banister rail for the poor girl ?

    Dear Geoff, I was rather worried (also considering her expression) by what she would find at its end ...
    Thank You!
