Figure Study- Woman from Back

[Jonathon Potter]

Hello all, just wanted to post an artwork I am feeling very proud of,

Working from Charles Hu’s instructions on the Zorn Palette, I decided to copy a figure study of a woman by Amalia Lindegren from 1850,

Granted some of the features and colours are slightly odd, but I find myself incredibly happy as this is like nothing I have ever done before 🙂

Any suggestions and feedback are welcome

 

Otherwise, have a lovely day!

Thank you very much!

I was very surprised at how this went, happily though

This is really nice! I like the way you used the reflected lights at the bottom and the smooth transition between lights and shadows! It seems to by a small piece (given the size of your signature), am I right? If so, I find that the amount of information you were able to put into such a small piece without complexifying it is really nice! I usually get lost in the details unnecessarily hahah.
