Plotted sketch of a nude male model.

A stripped-back sketch of a nude male model. This was created using two Bic Biros – one red, one black – on a plotter, using A3 paper. Seaton posed for this picture remotely from Australia.

I wanted to capture the motion in his body by using swooping lines to follow the contours of his body.

For another example of this effect, using an image from the same session, check out Seaton swoop 2.

 

Material: Bic Biros on paper
