Chromatic Resonator X 2013. Watercolor on paper, 14.25 x 10 inches.
I thought I’d share these beautiful drawings done in ballpoint pen by artist Sarah Esteje that I found on Stumble.
Cages, the new series from self-taught Canadian artist Sandra Chevrier, is about the never-ending struggle with conventions, society and expectations. Women all over the world have to face society´s twisted and artificially created preconceptions of being beautiful and perfect. Chevrier’s approach is to make this inner struggle visible and perceivable. By using heavy textures of paint, her women seem to liberate themselves from the two-dimensionality of the canvas, stepping into the real world and shifting from imagination to reality by freeing their minds.

Here are some extremely useful pose guides made by Aomori over on deviantArt.
This is mostly just a reference for myself because I just lost these and couldn’t remember where to find them, so I’m not going to bother tagging. But I thought some of my followers could also possibly use these too.
Considering my tendency to draw women over men, this is useful.
helloooooo useful poses
