I drew this work based on a picture my friend Earl took of his wife Sylvia. I thought it was a nice composition, and the photograph has some very interesting use of light and shadow.
This drawing is just contour line art. I've intentionally left out any dark values. I plan to use this artwork as the base for experimenting with different shadow forms. Since the master file is unshaded, I can use it over and over again for exercises which I will publish later on JSVB.
