So here is a nice little number from the vault. I was looking through my sketchbook for my first-ever semester at Art School. Gosh. Lots of great ideas but so green about how to achieve them.
I've always loved life drawing, but I used to get into trouble for exaggerating the body parts. At least I'm not making the tits huge like in comic-book drawing. In fact I'm not quite sure what is happening in that region here, but the thigh works for me. Classic art school student life drawing: no hands, feet, and a sketchy face. When I realised that was a cliche, I made a point of always drawing the model's actual face. But I hadn't had that epiphany in April 1995.
Oh, and for those interested, the Black Bean Blower play was brilliant. Here is the leading man himself (a bit fuzzy, sorry):

That is a fabulous costume. And I see you found the fabled black jellybeans.
Duckie thank you, I don't think my harse has ever looked better. I've never been better proportioned.
yay for brilliant plays
yay for chocolate and beetroot cake
yay for *glorious* thighs

he reminds me of something from the mid-70's but I can't quite put my brain on it...
