drawing in progress!

[dx]

Try to shake off the rustyness.

I haven't been actually drawing much between teaching, running my own design business and getting my Masters degree.

it's 36" x 24"ish

give me some crits if you have the time.

edited because of a very, very small hint of a nipple. (ridiculous)

Before it's deleted (no nudity rule) I'll say I like the composition and the high contrast. The figure-work is really beautiful.

My only crit is the lower half of the body is rendered in a way that is harsh and not as careful as the rest of the pic. It appears to me that she's disrobing, but the rendering of the folds seem a little rushed. Take some time with it and the piece will be perfect.

It took me a while to figure out that she was holding the cloth around her waist. That section of the drawing gets lost in the black. Add some highlights to break up the black and distinguish shapes.

Really cool, though. Love her face.
