Combining Figurative Forms

I’m about 90% sure that I will not erase this drawing…

I have had this idea recently of combining figurative forms, and I’m not sure why. So, I figured I would just chase the idea and see where it leads. After today’s life drawing I figured out that it was a lot of fun, but I’m still not sure of the direction.

The Drawing

Process Photos

I used Photoshop to darken the drawing up a bit. I was feeling like it needed so higher contrast but I wanted to test that idea before I began editing the drawing. I think I’m correct in this assumption, so I will have to work on it soon while the pose is still in my head.

I'm an artist on a mission to do at least 30 minutes of art every single day for the rest of my life and track that progress on my website for all to see. I'm past the 10 year mark and I'm still going strong. Now it's time to give back and help other artists create a life long habit of creating.
