Many thanks to amazing muses @emilymetalskin.bsky.social & @strakyhutch.bsky.social for fantastic Aat Veldoen inspired life drawing session organised by @helenroeten.bsky.social 7.1.26 #art #humour #gardening #bananas #melon #stiletto #slapstick #flowers #comedy #lifedrawing #muse #femalemodel

A series of 8 drawings of Emily and Amélie made 7.1.26 at a session organised by Helen inspired by the Dutch artist Aat Veldhoen. All made in Pitt Pastel on Newsprint. Clockwise, starting from top left:-
1. Emily & Amelie standing eating bananas with coloured ring floats around their necks.
2. Amelie has her hair pinned to the wall and between her legs lies Emily, whose modesty is protected by a small garden fork and some leaves.
3. Both are seated on the floor wearing stilettos. Amelie is at the back, leaning against the wall, while Emily leans against her raised knee. Her right leg protects her modesty.
4. The two girls are under an umbrella, with Emily putting her hand over Amelie's hip. Amelie is holding a cigarette.
5. Amelie is seated with some flowers in her lap, while Emily bends over her, her finger pressed on her lip cheekily, watering the flowers.
6. Amelie is seated on a stool with her back towards the viewer. She holds a slice of watermelon, which Emily, who is seated in front of her, facing the viewer, appears to be eating.
7. Emily is standing holding 2 long stemmed chrysanthemums while Amelie, seated in front of her, appears to be clipping them.
8. A double portrait with both girls wearing false curly moustaches, fastened through their nostrils. Emily is on the viewer's right holding a glass containing a green liquid.

In this fragile time where death breaths too close to my face. Where a goodbye is facing me I painted this madonna , she is me holding my inner child. Always to remember that life goes on. Tears must run free and a trembling heart shows all beauty and pain life and deaths hold
