A Friendly observation on your drawings,Chris:
You might consider the empty spaces as form
and as important as you main subject within
the total space it displaces.
Forget anatomy, rules, rest the mind, and let
your body do it's will. A surprise will happen.

What do my drawings have to do with the topic of this thread?
Following her concern with the "re-creation of reality", Rand's
first response
to them would probably be similar to that of Boris: finding something
inaccurate with the anatomy or proportions.
Following her concern with the metaphysical values expressed by the
artist,
she would also be looking for more ideal, athletic, slender body
types and she
would want them to to feel like they were isolated and striving
towards some
kind of self realization.
And yes, my drawings fail on all counts.
BTW - here's another one that I just did 2 weeks ago at my annual
Labor Day
Drawing marathon at the Palette and Chisel Academy:
