Solarisation

These times I miss my model and look forward to have her over to sit for me again. In the meantime I make do with pictures from previous sessions although live drawing sessions are the best.

I decided to employ a bit of solarisation and rendered the body slightly roundistic. Perhaps you can see me in the drawing as well?

Body Position

Of late I had it in my mind to choose a different body position. I had her pose in so many but I was intrigued by this pose that I saw on a vintage picture. It almost looks like a pentagram. Since I can afford myself hiring a model on a montlhy basis I prefer using the pose than using vintage photographs anymore. As to copyright they are mine and I can make adjustments. (Un)fortunately one can do everything when you have money.

A Step Further

In the next one (Roundism – 31-03-20) I took it one step further with regard to abstracting it. I sold that one very quickly. This one still is in my portfolio.
