Watercolour figure study of a seated male nude. The model sits on the floor on purple and magenta drapery, one knee raised, weight resting on his right hand behind him. His gaze is directed slightly upward and to the left, with a calm, assured expression. The face and hair are rendered with the most detail — dark curly hair, defined features, warm skin tones. The body is built up with loose, transparent washes of burnt sienna and raw umber, leaving areas of white paper for highlights. Shadows suggest musculature across the torso and legs. The drapery beneath him is painted in saturated violet and crimson. No preliminary pencil drawing — painted directly in watercolour on white paper.
55-minute pose at Life Drawing Barcelona. Direct watercolour, no preliminary sketch — the session centred on the portrait of model @raul-bcn.bsky.social, whose presence makes every minute count. #水彩 #人物画
