Captivating, Like Shorty's Hips Gyrating...
What's that you say? Why that is the sound of my pen hitting paper again. I wrote about 26 bars earlier today, and I'm going back in for another round before I go to bed. I would like to have at least 64 bars straight, if not a bit longer. If I where industrious I would drive to Richmond for the next poetry slam, but we'll say how that goes.
So, something occured to me. I wanted to make sure my recent posts don't misrepresent me to my viewing public (all 3 of you). Not that anyone would care if I did, but I hate being misrepresented. So, just so you know, I love being the person that I am, and I am generally of high spirit, even if something different comes across. I just happen to try to push myself hard (not nearly hard enough IMO) so that I can unlock the potential that lay within me. I mean, what's the point of being if you're not going to be the best you you can possibly be. Anything else would be a waste. Something else occured to me just now, the points are not the point, the art is the point, so here it is.
So this started as a sketch of a nude figure on a stool. Once I had the nude done, Ithrew some clothes on her. The sketch is fairly close to the original save a few miscalculations on my part. The facial expression was not refrenced, it's just kind of what I settled on when I got bored of trying to do something interesting. The overall design isn't amazing or anything as I really didn't put much thought into it, or look at any refrences for the clothes. The two things that I feel most strongly about on the pic are the hair and the nipples. Yeah, you heard me. As far as the hair, I was thinking I wanted short and spikey, but I'm not sure if I'm happy with the outcome. As for the nipples, I did something I've never really done and went with the whole protruding nipple thing, mainly cuz I've never really done it. Maybe it's a really cold stool or something. Strangely it draws my attention to it, like I've done something wrong by acknowledging the existence of the nipple, yet at the same time I left it there because some part of me wants to believe in the existence of my character's nipples. Don't think about it, just go with it.
