  1. Wow...another winner. The left arm placement, slight twist and arched torso adds balance and interest. Not drawn but must be there a wedge under his right foot.

    1. I agree, David. At first glance, it looks like a typical academic pose, but the details make it special.

    2. I think quite accomplished. I'm guessing our model is quite short from the size of his stunning torso.
