Finally some art

[hrymfaxe]

... of course it's not for any of the many things I've signed up for over the last month, but hey, a drawing is a drawing right? I'm going to paint this, but I really like the drawing too, so I'm posting it here for posterity. It might also be fun to compare with the finished painting. No warnings but there are naked feet, knees and anklebones. :D

I love it! It seems a challenging pose to draw. Can't wait to see the painting! :)

Thanks! It was a fun pose to draw. (I just really wanted to draw knees and feet, which is how it all developed). And it's good to see it here, because I see some small things to adjust before starting with the paint. :)

I've missed seeing your art!

Agreed with Dawn -- this looks like a really tough pose. The feet are especially wonderful, and the angle of his head, and for some reason I also really like the pillow.

I've missed making it! :) (thank you for looking ♥)

I just really felt like drawing feet and legs, and that unguarded way we hold our bodies when we sleep. And the pillow looks very comfortable doesn't it? :) I could use a nice chair to nap in right now....

Sexy feet! And a nice hand, what little we can see of it. I also think it vanishes toward the head accurately. I like it all.

Thank you! It sounds so perverted, but I love feet. Like hands they are expressive and interesting shapes to draw. :) And I'm glad you think the perspective works - that it always such a tricky thing to get right.

I've just yawned myself - that totally relaxed pose you've drawn here must be so lifelike! If I say I like the angle of his legs you're going to know where I'm looking(!), but that's exactly the wide-legged sprawl that is for unobserved or unguarded moments. And I also like the sexy feet. :)

you're going to know where I'm looking(!)

I've pretty much set a trap for your eyes, so I won't judge. ;) Glad to have caught the unguarded sleeping moment and the sexy feet. Just what I was going for.

Thank you ♥

Lovely!
You've successfully achieved the look that this body is really sunk onto this chair---difficult do do with this pose.
Foreshortening has always scared me, lol.

Thank you! :)

I really loved drawing this pose, and it came easier than I thought it would. Mostly I just really wanted to draw feet, and the rest just build from there.
