More giant things

(CLICK ANY TO ENLARGE)

This is the chalk drawing piece I did this Saturday at Slausen Park.

It's taken after Bellow's Stag at Sharkey's and is done in black/white/yellow chalk, 4'x6'.

A closer view of the figures, nevermind the missing shoulder blade on the right boxer. Woops! The guy on the left turned out great though, I love that figure.

Little figures in the crowd, I love seeing how simple one can be yet still indicate an object/subject. Great fun!

Another closer view

The giant proboscis

Charcoal, white/black conte on toned charcoal paper, same size as giant eyeball

Inspired by a scene in a movie called Unstrung Heroes, in which a young son is 'saying goodbye' to his dying mother.

The piece turned out to be two guys, I guess me and Michaelangelo do only know the male figure.

Frustrating, but...

...the hand configurations I do like quite a lot. I will probably to this one over again, but with reference pictures not out of my head, or trying to contort my own hand as a model. And one will be female, and the other younger. Till next time.

Oh, and check out Kathe Kollwitz's Woman with Dead Child , this is the etched version opposed to the conte, but it'll give you the general idea.
