I love the weight, volume and fluidity of these! Did you draw them from life? There's a graphic nature here too that is very nice! I looked back through some of your previous posts and really admire your drawing skill and the fact that you've made real strides to return to them after being entrenched in Graphic Design for a while. I look forward to seeing you around the Drawing Board as well as IF (I lurk regularly around the Drawing Board, though I've yet to post much myself.)

Cheers, Melanie ( http://melaniefordwilson.com/blog )

Nice job as usual Chrissie. I really like the one in grey and the light green/ tan one. I also dig the vector art you posted earlier- nice work there too- if you decide to make the jump to learn Illustrator, feel free to ask me any questions you might have and I will do my best to help you out. Illustrator is a great program!

This series is very sumptuous! The figure is so solid, the lines so eloquent, and the various colors add tremendous interest. Lovely:>

Very nice work! I like the blue fatty very much! The color with the white lines gives the image some kind of cool surrealistic feeling.

Bye!
