It's plaster torso drawing in step by step breakdowns. You can find which principle I apply each stage.

  • Size: 24Hx18W inch.
  • Medium: Willow charcoal stick and general charcoall penciils on medium tooth paper.

STAGE 1
Positioning simple shape of torso with light lines.

STAGE 2
Refining outlines and dark value on the most important part of this composition.

STAGE 3
Various mid tone values.

STAGE 4
Darkened shadw for higher contrast.

STAGE 5

Very cool. The way you handled how light interacts with the edge of a shadowed, curved surface is impressive: )

Mm nice, so good I thought it' s real sculpture at first view :)

Looks like something very difficult. What elements were the most difficult for you to draw?

Almost everything
