I´ve been drawing these working men now for a week, as I set out to do, so this is the last one. At least for now.
The gray in this image is mixed from Permanent Carmine and Winsor Green (blue shade). I like this mix, both of the colours will come out here and there as themselves, refusing to be gray together - a great little effect, impossible to control.
10 x 15 cm, pencil and watercolours on Canson Montval watercolour paper, rough grain.

Wonderful end to a great week of drawing. You are lucky to be able to draw and capture such a past of people before. Their dress and time. Well done.

I really enjoyed this series, Nina. They all feel very authentic, even if they're not portraits, strictly speaking. Wonderful inspiration - I'm off to my studio!
