Day 25: I attribute this sketch to an animated short entitled "The Queens Monastery". It was part of a compilation dvd of wonderful animated shorts. Spike and Mike's classic festival of Animation.
Definately worth buying, as I've watched this dvd numerous amounts of times.
My wife wonders why I don't pen women very often. I'm not entirly sure, but it can probably be attributed to the fact that I don't want to emulate beauty with pen, because it's much more difficult than drawing the hideous and ugly. Men are usually uglier in my eyes than women. However, I do think this sketch entails the tall womanly figure artfully.

True, very artful. I used to draw a lot more and I found that when I tried drawing women I was never satisfied. It seemed that with males it was fairly easy to get across what I was trying to but I had a hard time with females. I wouldn't say I avoided trying to express beauty with a pen but it was definitely harder to do. I might add that it seems like the ultimate challenge for an artist and the same thing all artists struggle with in different ways.

I could never get the boobs right.
And figure? Isn't that a woman's face?
