i'm getting settled in finally, got everything unpacked. still need to find or buy a new set of alan wrenches to set up my futon, and i'd like my bed up in this neat loft but i can't move it up there myself. the loft is carpeted, so i'd rather have my studio downstairs in the 'bedroom.' the bedroom is hardwood floors and higher ceilings, better lighting.
i unpacked all my drawings from the past few months and just spread them all out over the floor. feels nice to have lots of free room.
i've only done a little bit of drawing so far. my computer is sitting on my drafting table (again), because i can only get wireless from my landlord in the 'bedroom.' blahhh, boring stuff.
i got my tracing paper out this evening and started to trace the component parts of all my figure drawings. i have three pages of legs so far, and will do the same with arms, hands, feet, breasts, heads, etc. my plan is then to use those tracings to create composites or 'hybrid' figures, with different body parts from many different drawings. i think it could be interesting.
this isn't the first time i've used my figure drawings or self-portraits as tracing material. i'm going to just be extending that idea in the next couple days.
i'll post my results if they are any good.
