Critique #3 - The Blue Boy

The Blue Boy

Calligraphy Ink

Breathe and Quality

I had a sudden idea for this piece and ran into in. 

Possibly less noticeable, this Parody (VAL) is of  Thomas Gainsborough's The Blue Boy.

I also wanted to demonstrate the ability to use quick drying ink and show an Anatomical stance with the contraction and flexing of the gluteus maximus. Also demonstrating light as it lands across the body. I wanted to reference an arm on the right, without drawing it. Mainly, I wanted to show skills with a hard medium.
