I created this blog to generate conversations about what the figure is in a contemporary art context for my students in the Saturday Studios Figure drawing class.

Some artists who exaggerate really well
R. Crumb- A pervy, but hilarious comic book illustrator.(If you're easily offended...don't look at his work. His figures are pretty awesome though). Ralph Steadman Peter de Seve
Marlo Meekins She worked for John K (creator of Ren and Stimpy)
This is Katie Rice, she is also worked for John K.
the second to last image has very good detail in the eyes that show the effect of how sick the women is
ReplyDeleteThat's a great observation Kathy.
ReplyDeleteI also like the juxtaposition with the figure on the left.
It creates a sort of silly narrative.
"Is that a sexy lady....or...whoops she turned around and she's really scary horrible and ugly!"
