Drapery on human anatomy




The focus of these few studies is drapery on human figures. One is of the model holding some translucent fabric the other is of some fabric draped over an arm. 

The drapery on the first piece works well; you can see the folds of the drapery on both the fabric the model is holding and the fabric on the table. You can also tell what the fabric is like, you can tell the fabric over the knee is translucent. On the second piece it was done using natural lighting, this caused the problem of it being a very dark sketch. What it shows is my arm with a scarf draped over it. The scarf is dark grey on one side and light grey on the other side. The creases in the fabric look good which allows the viewer to tell that they are actual creases. My main concern is that the overall image is too dark and that i should have set up some artificial light
