Another appropriate title for this drawing would be "Cold".
In early March, the boiler at the Palette and Chisel went out for a few days. Even with a couple of small electric heaters going, the room was cool even for the clothed. For the final pose of the Monday evening session, Anna hurdled and took a fetal position for warmth.

I find one of the most difficult things to draw in human figure is feet that are foreshortened and viewed from under.
It can easily take on the appearance of a couple of potatoes or banana peels.

Another extreme foreshortened pose. With the given time of 20 minutes, I had to be very selective as to what part of the pose I should develop and how I can make the drawing a finished one without completely finishing it.
