It goes without saying that the hands and feet are the most difficult parts of the human anatomy to capture perfectly, followed of course by the face.

Above are partial back studies of Tiffany focusing on the scapula. The vine charcoal allowed me to focus on the movement of the torso while the silverpoint focused on the projecting surfaces.
