Fur? I'd Rather Go Naked.




My summer before my senior year of high school I took painting & drawing courses at Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. These are from the drawing course, done in ink. I absolutely adore ink! I love using ink and mixing it with other mediums such as watercolor. This woman was particularly curvaceous and it was interesting trying to apply the ink to capture the shadows created by the light and curves on her body. There is something so incredible about the human form...imagine never having seen a human before and suddenly one appears. Wouldn't a human appear strange in having five fingers, two legs, one head etc.?! I don't know, I'm starting to ramble...
Cheers!

Amski.
