Ninety-Eight























Study (after Sherrie McGraw)I really like this one, especially the chest. I like how just a few lines capture the turn of the form. 

This project took form in my mind as the gems of my road trip came tumbling back. Just wait until you get to one hundred heads, you will see, my craniosacral teacher in Chicago said, when I was filled with doubt. Once you do one hundred color studies you will really see color, the instructors at Studio Incamminati said. 

As I draw I hear the whisper of Rob Liberace...Clavicles are very important. Don't round out the brow ridge. Be very careful about eyes and nostrils, leave those for last. Mass in different directions according to muscle or shadow then unify...
