Two varieties in the Same Style This graphite pencil drawing ‘Roundism – 17-08-22’ follows its angular version of two days ago. Surely Walter Bird’s reference photograph was good enough to draw two versions from it. The aim of course was to offer the viewer the ability to compare these two. See what choices in abstraction I made. Now this one is finished it almost is a pitty to leave the subject and find another one. It is just that I am a sucker for razor lights, contre-jour and other extreme lightings. There are plenty of more reference pictures of old to be found. I hope I can make such photographs in a better studio with better equipment myself one day. Scaling In the first drawing of the subject I kept a considerable part of the negative space. In other words, I drew the body a bit too small compared to the space around her, I think. However, the advantage of doing one subject twice is that you offer yourself a second chance. So I scaled the female form up a bit.
