Fantastic pose. I can't believe how long it's been since you've posted this. How did you come up with this figure/pose? I love that you depict the body in a very expressionist way while maintaining a realistic shape/detail.

Thanks!

How did I come up with this; I always start with a simple visual goal and shoot off a bunch of iterations. This here was just another example of my tendency to use the page area like a box with a figure crammed in.

If I were to do this now, I'd draw his body line even closer to the edge and neaten up the leg's arrangement.

Cool It's always interesting to learn about the process of the artist and not just the product. Do you still do much artwork? I never asked you (or perhaps I forgot) whether you do art as a hobby or do something creative in employment as well?

Well, art is more than a hobby I guess and I have been known to sell a thing or two. Yes, I still do what I can. I just don't bother to put work online anywhere anymore.

very expressive, this isn't my kind of art but the fact is I like the fact that this is what you like to draw and the pieces that make you, you. A Beautiful work is its something I see with some much emotion.

This is very interesting.
I like the feet a lot.
And I really like the hand on the head. It feels like an hallucination.

turmoil, pain, inner struggles and arguments, torn ideals. that is what this image brings to mind.
i love the crosshatching work. really adds to the tension.
