I reworked the image more in photoshop. Since people liked the image, I worked out the issues that I wasn’t pleased with, namely the symmetry. I think the figure  is better with three arms. She’s still insect-like and the three arms reinforces more of the trinity aspect of the figure.

I might fuss with the right hand more after it’s printed on film, but it’s nearly there.

Drawing by Chloe Piene

I’ve been sketching a lot to figure out a different way to draw my figures, mostly in pen to break my perfectionist needs. I’m too embarrass to show anything now, but here’s two artists I’ve been looking at for inspiration. Chloe Piene just had a lecture at my school, which I missed it because of work. Sad. I’m kind of surprised nobody’s mention her name in critiques for me to research. Her work would have been helpful for me. I’m going to go research her drawings more at the library. Hopefully this will set off inspiring drawing ideas.

Anyway, here’s one of the prints I’ve been working one. It’s still not done, but you can see the progress here:

I’ve darken her surroundings, added more lines, and define more curls. It’s almost done. I’m going to attempt to make it have two colors with a color wipe technique that I never got around to trying. Fingers crossed.
