Jon drawing study


This is a drawing I did from two photo references for a painting I'm in the works of starting. Throughout my foundation year at my old school CCP we focused on figures and their relationship within space with charcoal practices that I've grown found of however, I've been working in graphite a lot more to break up the mediums I've been working with. I've been exploring gender roles and have been interested in the femenization of the male form in suggestive ways and in direct ways of engaging the viewer. I'm working to get in the habit of drawing/ planning paintings out instead of working directly on to the surface.

I've always held my sketch books as important places where things happen and sometimes I think we forget to use them to their fullest so I've been looking at some other artists sketch books no matter the medium they work in to see how they operate I think Stella Im Hultberg is an illustrator however her sketch book is pretty interesting...
