Hello, all!  Tonight I’m posting the line art for a drawing I’m submitting to the Tata Gala juried show.  Since it’s juried, I’ll either be in the gallery shows themselves (there are two), or, if the judges don’t choose to hang it up as a physical piece, it may appear in the online gallery.  Either way, part of the entry fee goes toward their crusade for breast cancer research and I’m totally cool with that.

The drawing is a caricature of myself.  A lot of the imagery I’ve seen in the show includes thin/fitI wanted to submit an image of a curvier, more heavyset woman, who is still having fun with her body and is proud to be a woman.  The look on her face is surprised, but not afraid or self-conscious, just fun.

I want to color it, but I’m not sure how.  I think flat, pop art-like colors would be fun, to play up the positivity of the image and the show itself.

I’m posting a thumbnail instead of the entire image for the sake of you viewers who don’t want even artful lady parts gracing your computer at work or school.  Click for the full-size view at your own discretion.
