Over the semester, I worked to better my understanding of a number of biological forms through drawing. My Final Project Submission consists of 23 pencil Sketches from my sketchbook, 4 larger Explorations in charcoal, and 2 final charcoal Studies. I also included an artist’s statement cataloging my ideas and a bit of my process for the project.

This project consists of a series of works of art of a horseback riding theme, which combine the mediums and styles of Chinese painting and western charcoal drawing.

I spent a semester working closely with models to improve my figure drawing. My final deliverable became creating finished drawings of several interesting poses I had worked closely, and repeatedly, with throughout the semester.
