Flounce - original charcoal figurative drawing
Here's a drawing I did a couple of years ago after watching a live flamenco show. First, there was the gritty, gypsy flamenco that I adore, then a more modern version, I guess you'd say, with such swirling of skirts. Lots of ruffles and grace, yet the dancers retained much of the original flamenco and it was just beautiful. I drew this, I think, with a charcoal pencil. Looks like it, anyway, and it was originally on 12 x 9" Strathmore drawing paper, but I trimmed it to about 8 x 7" or so. It seemed to me that everything after the first few flounces was superfluous. I guess I didn't think so at the time, but do now. Thanks so much for looking!
