3rd Entry for Dec 6, 2010




Above is 3-minute study and below are two 5-minute studies.  the textures and surfaces of B-   's outfit were a challenge to try to depict, and required all my familiarity with figure drawing to set down the shapes of the pose.
A body can represent many things, but this ensemble definitely pushes the body's forms into the context of desire.
The outfit also reminded me of the look of Weimar republic cabarets, and Marlene Dietrich's character in "The Blue Angel".
