Armpit Gym Bunny, 11x14 inches crayon on cotton paper by Kenney Mencher
ORIGINAL WORK NOT A REPRODUCTION
Free shipping anywhere in the world.
Shipping takes 3-4 weeks.
I was trying to channel Egon Schiele or Gustav Klimt on this one. I wanted this to be a kind of flowing contour lined work without to much shading. When I finished the drawing process I kind of got hung up second guessing myself as to whether or not I should develop this a bit more but I decided to leave it. I've ruined things I've worked on before so this is how it will stay!
This black and white or monochromatic drawing a young muscular man is cropped to create interesting composition by cropping the figure and working with the edges of the picture plane to create an asymmetrical and interesting composition.
Figure drawing and anatomy is one of my favorite things to draw. Drawings allow me to indulge in whatever subjects I like without to much time and art materials. In this way I can experiment too. Often if the drawing is successful (and is kind of sexy too, I'll use the drawing as a plan or "study" to make an oil painting or a watercolor later on.
Other things I like to explore in my drawings are making marks and shading. I like for the marks to be the same as my brushwork. The marks are designed to emphasize the directions of the planes and emphasize the volumes.
I draw with lithographic crayons which are time tested for stability and permanence. They are also much sturdier than drawing with charcoal because they will not smudge or smear while being handled or mailed. The paper that this is on is called Rives BFK, which is a type of heavy cotton printmaking paper that won't degrade over time and should hold the color really well for at least fifty to one hundred years without fading, especially if this is framed behind glass.

This is a standard size so you may be able to find an "open back" frame kit on the web to frame it at a significantly lower cost than a frame shop.
