Another amazing figure study. Raw, emotional with the color you used, and captivating. I really appreciate this type of work because it's so free and loose yet you have to be so planned in your "approach"....I'm not really bullshitting, I really truly believe this work is so hard to create which is why I absolutely love it.
Love the way you used the slight blue in the red to kind of ground it in a sort of struggle of color and movement.
I'm pretty much gushing now. Love your work. Definite watcher here.

Thank you for the watch and critique. Contrary to what some people might think, this style of painting actually takes a great deal of discipline. You must be able to work quick and with confidence and know when to stop.

Damn amazing. Solid figure but free line. Realistic but interpretative coloring. Amazing.
What did you use the paint thinner for?

thanks for the great comments! i used the paint thinner to create a wash with pretty early in the drawing. you can still see it in the face and the lower torso.

You're welcome!

These studies and such are damn near masterful. Reminds me of Renaissance artists studies (Michelangelo etc.)
The color work too is gorgeous. Its a sorta hot and cold. I really get a sense of power and appreciation/love for the body from your works.
