Painting Nan - sketches

Vine charcoal sketch on prepared board

This is a woman I met one day and then surreptitiously snapped a photo of her. 

I didn't realize what a funny pose she got into as my phone captured her image.

Anyway, I put the photo away for awhile, but first I did a quick sketch. 

Today I sketched her again from the photo and then started a painting. 

She tickles me....I am so curious how it will turn out!
