Line Contour Drawing of a Woman's Left Leg and Foot
Drawing
Female nude figure
Graphite stick, and 2H, HB, and 8B pencils on Canson white 50-pound, acid-free paper
April 2005
Dimensions: paper about 18 inches (about 45.7 cm) high by about 24 inches (about 60.6 cm) wide; image about 13 inches (about 33 cm) high by about 15 inches (about 38.1 cm) wide, positioned slightly to the left of the center of the paper, for dramatic effect
A reworking of one of my very first studio sketches from 1996, this bold and stylish drawing is almost abstract and modernistic in its cool simplicity and spareness.
