#21emBODY | HIPS

For most of the paintings in my #21emBODY series I’ve been referring to three different resources I have in my studio:

The Anatomy Coloring Book
Body Parts: A Practical Sourcebook for Drawing the Human Form
An Atlas of Anatomy for Artists

But for today’s invitation: hips, I decided to use my own personal process that I share in my 21 SECRETS emBODY workshop: imPERFECT that’s coming out Monday, March 27th!

Instead of looking outward — even at my own body, I go inward and feel what the body part(s) I’m putting my attention on feel like from the inside out.  The result tends to be something a bit distorted, exaggerated, wonky….imPERFECT.

This process of mine has been quite healing as well as challenging, personally.  And for some reason, I felt like it’s time to shift away a bit from the trees and body parts I’ve been playing with and go a little deeper in this piece.
