Comparing Drawings 1 and 2


I have finished the first two drawings to about the same point. They are not completely finished, but close to 80% done. I plan to finish the six drawings at the same time. Both are 75 inches tall on gray paper. Currently they are both on display at my studio as you see them here.
Both are crouching poses, but slightly different. The figure in the drawing on the left (drawing 2) has been pushed back on her heals by the weight of the rock. This drawing has an anguished look compared to the first drawing. In the left drawing, the shadow of the rock cast on the ground is much stronger as the rock is looming closer to the ground. I am pleased how the foot stands out from the cast shadow. Also, the shadows on the stomach muscles came out well.
