The Little dancer
Chocolate and White Conte
on grey paper
with pastel highlights.

This was my third try at the subject.
At the museum I used graphite on white
paper and miscalculated the proportions and cut her off
at the knees.

From the photo at home
I did another go with charcoal on yellowish paper
and got the proportions better.
At least her feet made the page.
But in the third try I got a good feel of the bronze
and the proportions were pretty successful.

Here's the original.
