These two gesture drawings took about 5 minutes each. I used soft charcoal on newsprint paper. I like the overall capture of the poses. There’s clearly some drama between these two, but we’ll never know for sure. It amuses me to come up with random stories for these figures, even though it’s the same model that I drew at two different points in time. Drawing can flatten and compress time, it’s like magic (or science). These are going to be my Drama Lama Drawings from now on! Perhaps we’re witnessing the birth of the new art series, who knows.
