Study from Life Drawing Meet Up in Davis, CA

I joined a meet-up Life Drawing group in Davis, California a few months ago, which I've attended a couple of times.  I went last week and did this study that I'm putting on my blog censored, but I'm planning on adding a  new category to my web-site, "Life Drawing/Paintings/Studies/Nudes"where this will be included.  I have done some "life drawing" over the years, though not a lot, and since I joined this meet-up, I've found that I really enjoy painting skin. 
This is the pose that was set up by the group organizer's and I like the over-all outcome of the studies' composition.  It's my hope that this will be seen as a nice study of the human body.
