Description This is sketched from a photo by Boris Vallejo, an amazing photographer. It appears in his book Bodies, published by Thunder's Mouth Press.

Done with Ebony pencil.

Comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated! This drawing was more for technical practice than artistic value; Vallejo's original is the art.

Great drawing, I can't believe I had not commented on this before, but the pose it very powerful as others on here did say. And the technique gives it a certain feel that I don't think could be improved apon.
Excellent

I've read that book... Mr Vallejo is indeed a rather talented photographer (as well as a very good airbrush artist) and this is a very cool sketch!

Anatomically (sp?) That is a wonderful drawing. I used to sketch from the da vinci book with all his body study notes for practice.

Great pose. I'm sure it was a good photo. Good job showing muscle definition, and overall, the peice really puts off a good graceful look, as if a dancer, or gymnist were stretching before a performance.the shading is awesome.. especially on the hair. some people just amaze me, on how good they make the hair... it's one thing I just cannot do, and almost give up on sometimes. great work... really like this one

The muscle depiction is fantastic. I wish you had more deviations to ogle. But the ones you have are always of the utmost quality.

Hmmm.. I was pretty sure he just painted, could be wrong though. I have one of his books and it said he painted... I could, and probably am wrong.

great technique. i think maybe her abdomen should be darker shaded, or her leg is too dark, but outherwise this is one impressive sketch.
