Entry 14: Cloth study, finished piece

This week's entry is a study of different kind of cloth materials. This finished piece was made in graphite stick and done in 40 minutes. The angle I chose to work from shows several different materials overlapping each other. The light is also very interesting with a wide spectrum of quite dark and light values.

The challenge here was to capture the essence in the different materials and to make all the different pieces stand out from each other so that the viewer easily could tell where something ends and something new begins.

The result of this finished drawing is, I think, quite high. The way of not doing every single pattern detail in the different cloth materials shows understanding in where to put in the details and where to hold it back. The light and shadows are clear and the motive is capture with skilled accuracy. Not much is to be improved in this drawing, which is a good example of a still life.
