In fact, these are some of the first blue pencils I've done in a long time--and the first I've scanned. Glad you liked the arm on the EUROCHINO site! <BR/><BR/>EL: Everything is actually very peaceful here--but then, we aren't marching in the protests! One thought: since we've moved here, Paris has had 25 days of riots, a nasty winter, and now nearly a month of protests and intermittent strikes; in two weeks we are relocating to Burbank. Sad news for the residents of Burbank, I suppose; with our arrival, the odds of an uneventful summer in the Greater Los Angeles Area are about to take a nosedive.<BR/><BR/>RICK: I like yr thoughts about skinny fingers and they are really relevant. This drawing represents a specific strain of "cadaver thinking" that will show up in the book, but not be the dominant style: I hope to intersperse some fancy cadaver drawings (like this one) to work as both stylistic counterpoint, and thought-provoker. There will be lots of fat finger drawings in the future, esp. as these are the only sort of fingers I got!<BR/><BR/>TOM C.: Start saving now.<BR/><BR/>TO ALL: No one commented on the relation between the drawing and the source material. I am trying to make the drawing offer up better, more useful information than the photo. I will assume it succeeds in this way, since no one complained about liking that ghastly photo better....Davis Chinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16168954208679712542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19949517.post-1144208488594039952006-04-04T20:41:00.000-07:002006-04-04T20:41:00.000-07:00Great studies.

Hogarth favored them and although anatomically correct, I have yet to see them in reality.<BR/><BR/>I assume in this case it's meant to show the inner structure, in which case you can completely ignore my comment... so why did I post? ;)Rickarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05730754739317666560noreply@blogger.com
