Drawing Challenge#12 - Women on a chair 椅子上的女人

this (2).jpg

I've spent 3 hours on this artwork mainly using Copic Markers and white pen on a grey book.

This is an entry for the People On The Chair drawing contest hosted by @helene.

At first, I looked at this theme and thought it was quite a dull idea. The first thing came to my mind was who am I going to draw sitting on a chair. What is the sitting pose and who that going to be, must be a celebrity since there is no way to make my entry outstanding.

But I was dead wrong.

After studying more about the materials, I found out the theme was actually really brilliant. Any people on any chair would match the theme and that absolutely should not limit to sitting only. And the chair is in no way should be restricted to ordinary four-legged chairs.

It could be a criminal being executed on an electricity chair, people thrilled on a roller coaster chair, dance on a chair, a king sitting on a throne, and so on. The pose combined the type of chair is definitely a good way to tell a story.

My material this time is a depressed lady who is being tied down to a chair. Is she suffer from home violence? Being kidnapped? Interrogation? Or she was just playing games with someone? She might not even be depressed at all! Your guess.

这幅作品花了三个小时,主要适用马克笔和白墨笔在灰色画本上作画。这同时也是 @helene 举办的椅子上的人绘画比赛的参赛作品。

一开始看到绘画主题我是有点纳闷的,不就是一个人坐在椅子上,太没有创意发挥的空间了。便开始想要画哪些明星好让作品更鹤立鸡群。

大错特错。

经过一番详细的琢磨后,我发现这题目并不简单。椅子上的人不一定是坐着的,也可以是站趟睡等等。还有椅子本身也不一定是普通的四角椅子。两种变数结合起来就是各种有趣的故事了。那可以是坐在电椅上的死囚,坐在王位上的皇者,过山车位子上享受激情的路人。椅子的形态和人的姿势就很可以把一个无声的故事表达出来。

这次的题材是一个被束缚在椅子上的看起来很消沉的女人。她是被绑架了?被审问?受家暴?还是正在和谁玩些什么游戏?她可能一点都不消沉!打开脑洞猜一猜也挺有趣的。
