Organizing art from last year: #1

So far 2013 has brought me...cleaning: the reorganizing and general clutter riddance will hopefully help with the creative flow. After some major furniture moving I've migrated to my computer and realized that I should also organize my photo albums!  So, here is a picture I found of my work in progress for the Annual Figureworks Awards Show back in November/December 2012.

For this work I went back to working on mylar. (Click to enlarge)  The drawing is done in graphite and a small amount of acrylic paint.

Figureworks is an amazing organization here in Ottawa.  They have annual juried award shows, this was my second time participating and my greatest impression is how well they treat their artists.  For more information visit: http://figureworks.org/
