RADIATOR CHICK AND BEACH BUMS FROM BEHIND

I began this drawing from an advertisement that caught my eye in a magazine. I made the same mistake as before, saving the figure until last. I was pretty happy with the way the window and background were turning out but decided to abandon the drawing after tackling the woman's head and face. I feel like her hair and face break with the line used in the rest of the drawing and I couldn't work out how to correct it. Maybe eventually I'll come back to it or make another attempt.


After my frustration with my first drawing today, I chose this scene from an old collage I had made a couple years ago. I like the simplicity of the composition and the shading, especially on the legs. I had a hard time getting the man's head right--specifically his hair line.
