These pictures go against every anatomy lesson I was ever taught. A person who hasn't studied drawing form and figure for years might not even notice how disproportionate the features are, but I KNOW the proportions are off, and it drives me batty. It's like knowing the dust bunnies are under the bed, even if no one can see them.
Yet through this intuitive art style I've finally managed to include in my drawings that "soul" they always seemed to be lacking. It is the only style I've ever tried that satisfactorily captures that level of expressive feeling for me. My right brain loves it and my left brain hates it. Through it I discover a new part of myself and a whole new way of handling catalyst and looking at the world. A good teaching exercise for me, indeed, seeing how I've always had a knack for being stubborn and set in my ways. :p
And don't get me wrong, Picasso was an awesome artist- one of my favorites.
