And again, the feeling of introspection you create in your work is, I think, quite revealing of your character. Certainly not every artist working with this pose would, or could, take us this far inside.William Michaelianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05945815778010124287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596223475426533484.post-41901601514683607512009-09-27T10:40:24.718-05:002009-09-27T10:40:24.718-05:00the division of the space is a strong choice.

Remember, these models are posing nude for figure drawing groups; they've got enough stress. They're concentrating on keeping their bodies as still as possible in whatever pose they're in; facial expression is not something they usually focus on. But I agree, Jamie was relaxed in her posing, and she kept her face unusually alert and relaxed, too.Jean Spitzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13520415864511680025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596223475426533484.post-61597125299473004342009-09-26T12:21:14.064-05:002009-09-26T12:21:14.064-05:00I agree, stromg.
