Happy New Year! I resolve to post more this year--to draw more this year. This is a recent colored pencil sketch of winter's persimmon crop, now long gone.

I started doing life drawing again about five years ago, joining a group after many years and a career away from it. This is a long pose that I sketched in pencil.
