Drawing Challenge#12 - Women on a chair 椅子上的女人

I've spent 3 hours on this artwork mainly using Copic Markers and white pen on a grey book.

This is an entry for the People On The Chair drawing contest hosted by @helene.

At first, I looked at this theme and thought it was quite a dull idea. The first thing came to my mind was who am I going to draw sitting on a chair. What is the sitting pose and who that going to be, must be a celebrity since there is no way to make my entry outstanding.

But I was dead wrong.

After studying more about the materials, I found out the theme was actually really brilliant. Any people on any chair would match the theme and that absolutely should not limit to sitting only. And the chair is in no way should be restricted to ordinary four-legged chairs.

It could be a criminal being executed on an electricity chair, people thrilled on a roller coaster chair, dance on a chair, a king sitting on a throne, and so on. The pose combined the type of chair is definitely a good way to tell a story.

My material this time is a depressed lady who is being tied down to a chair. Is she suffer from home violence? Being kidnapped? Interrogation? Or she was just playing games with someone? She might not even be depressed at all! Your guess.

这幅作品花了三个小时,主要适用马克笔和白墨笔在灰色画本上作画。这同时也是 @helene 举办的椅子上的人绘画比赛的参赛作品。

一开始看到绘画主题我是有点纳闷的,不就是一个人坐在椅子上,太没有创意发挥的空间了。便开始想要画哪些明星好让作品更鹤立鸡群。

大错特错。

经过一番详细的琢磨后,我发现这题目并不简单。椅子上的人不一定是坐着的,也可以是站趟睡等等。还有椅子本身也不一定是普通的四角椅子。两种变数结合起来就是各种有趣的故事了。那可以是坐在电椅上的死囚,坐在王位上的皇者,过山车位子上享受激情的路人。椅子的形态和人的姿势就很可以把一个无声的故事表达出来。

这次的题材是一个被束缚在椅子上的看起来很消沉的女人。她是被绑架了?被审问?受家暴?还是正在和谁玩些什么游戏?她可能一点都不消沉!打开脑洞猜一猜也挺有趣的。

WOW! I wish I was half as talented as you @fr3eze!
Your breakdown photos and layout are brilliant as well. Gives a comic book feel to your drawing. Do you ask someone to pose for you so you can get the proper shadows and accurate postures?

So humble of you!
Finally someone has notice the layout. I was experimenting with it and found this style of presenting more interesting and comfortable to view.

Nah I just draw whatever I can find online that I found unique and close to what I want to present. Cos and shoot it up for the drawing is too overwhelming to me.

It does bring out the best features of your drawing and provides an even more dynamic feel to it.
I'm thinking even a time-lapse video (of the 3-hour ordeal!) would be interesting to watch, if you point your camera directly on the drawing. And you're creative enough to have fun with the montage😊. Love it! Hope you win the contest.

Your opinion is truly appreciated just so you know.
I was starting my first few artworks here with the filming but got lazy after that. But I know that always will be a great form of documentation, soon I shall resume it.
Thanks for the kind wishes!

Yes! Look forward to seeing it.

高山仰止!
在外面看到小图,还以为是张照片呢!

客气啦!白墨笔加黑色画确实会有黑白照片的效果

画的越来越棒了

多谢了。每次都要更好

画的立体生动!
