These two are the same pose with the same model. Both images are 30"x22" on paper using acrylic, chalk pastel, and conté. The bottom image is one session of work. The top image is two sessions. Chronologically, the bottom image came before the top.
These 4 are on 36"x24" newsprint paper. The top one is ink and acrylic. The other are charcoal, acrylic, and sometimes chalk(pastel).

This drawing has at least two, maybe three layers of figures. You can see the ghost image of one as the ink slightly bled through a layer of paint. The top layer is acrylic and blue ink with white conté redefining the shape of the legs and feet. The size is 30 x 22 inches, on paper.

Both these are 30 x 22 inches on paper. Acrylic, pastel, conté, ink. I think there's no ink in the bottom image, or perhaps it's colored ink. After the first session the model had injured her shoulder making undressing too difficult. So, for the next two sessions she was in the same pose, just clothed. The top image is the result.
