Comments by the artist
This was a ink and nib study. I am happy with the proportions and some of the lines but I feel that the shadow turning point is much too dark, particularly along her leg. If it was softer it would make the drawing much more subtle. I will have to try and do that next time.
See a more detailed version of Girl in sepia ink (Charcoal pencil and ink drawing) on my new website.
Random art quote
'Color is crucial in painting, but it is very hard to talk about. There is almost nothing you can say that holds up as a generalization, because it depends on too many factors: size, modulation, the rest of the field, a certain consistency that color has with forms, and the statement you're trying to make.' - Roy Lichtenstein
