A page of figure studies in pencil, featuring one of the internet’s hardest-working art models, Nota Mu. Based on a couple of videos shared on her X feed. Do check that out and also her excellent online art gallery.

Within the pages of Ugly Mug 7 there’s a little tribute to Nota and the giant teddy bear she often poses with.
