Hi Christine a happy belated Easter to you!This is a great study of the anatomy! :ok: :ok: :whip: :whip: :clap: :clap: :clap: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :hi:

 Christine - 14/04/09, 20:44 reply
Exactly you are right on the money I did this super big 29x23 it was soooooo hard to scan had to take eleven scans of it in sections and then putting it together I had to practically draw it once again with the computer. Of courst it didn't turn out here half as nice as the original. It is a big one!!!!!!!!

 BeautifulDreamer79 - 14/04/09, 20:49 reply
Wow now that is a big one!I have'nt tackled anyhting this big with pencil yet but it turned out really great!

 Christine - 14/04/09, 21:09 reply
Again I was wrong it was 39x32 that is why it was so hard to scan!!!

 BeautifulDreamer79 - 14/04/09, 21:10 reply
WOW! I am looking at a poster I have 24x36 so I can imagine Christine hehe! :D :D :D :oO: :oO: :oO: :grin:

 Christine - 15/04/09, 16:57 reply
My husband joked about it being life size. He got a kick out of my monster drawing!!!

 Christine - 15/04/09, 16:58 reply
He laughed longer and harder at my trying to scan and repair it for the site. Wow this proves with persistance you can do anything. We could put a Billboard into the computer with a little fore thought!!!!!!!!!

 BeautifulDreamer79 - 15/04/09, 16:59 reply
:D :D :DWow!Everytime I see the size I look around at posters here..and that is surley a exhibition piece.How many hours Christine?

 Christine - 15/04/09, 17:05 reply
Actually about two days. I don't work at it for too long about an hour and a half at a time due to my hands. My fingers go numb and tingle so I can only stand to work that long at a stretch. I did take some classes in life drawing at Cooper Art school so it is easy to do nudes for me. Love to sculpt too but it will have to wait until I can get the surgery to help with the nerve in my right hand.

 BeautifulDreamer79 - 15/04/09, 17:25 reply
2 days,wow!I wish I could draw something as lifelike in that amount of time...I hope you can get the surgery soon.I sculpt too but with Super Sculpey mostly Chickens,hens and Uncle Sams maybe someday I will sculpt a President...I did a James Dean bust but I have no idea what I did with him.He had a cigarette in his mouth.

 Christine - 15/04/09, 20:29 reply
I will send you a picture of me with my goofy sculptures. You can see that I was okay but to take a two dimensional drawing to a three demensional work of clay is very difficult at least from a stand point of trying to get a likeness to the subject. I think I may be able to find the drawings of the person who posed for the head. You can see that I am an old biddy too!!!!

 BeautifulDreamer79 - 16/04/09, 02:05 reply
Hey Christine thanks for the photos,truly great work!You are inspiring me to get hold of some clay.Outstanding work! :hi: :ok: :ok: :ok: :clap: :clap: :clap:

So glad you approve of my sculptural piece hoping to get back into sculpture again when my hands are taken care of have carpel tunnel very bad from repetitive motion in the work place.

A simple, artistic, ellegant nude, with no vulgarity. Seems easy to do that, but it's not. It's only for great artists like you. Bravo, Christine!! :thumbup: :clap: :clap: :whip: :clap: :clap: :whip: :clap: :clap: :hi:

I like the classic renaissance painters and sculptures. I was hoping to add some sophistication to the site. I love doing children and art directed towards making childrens books but this is another venue to persue!!
