Very nice, I hate using charcoal, chalk, or pastels. I just can't stand the sound of them against the paper, or the mess. It's not my thing. But your piece came out nicely.

why thank you, i hated the material as well
the assignment was to do a skeleton piece with charcoal
everyone else in the class did a brown ground for the background then drew a bone or two on top of it because the teacher said that was a good idea
i said fuck that, drew a mostly whole skeleton and

colour

People who do the bare minimum in art classes annoy me, it's like they don't even care. If you take the class, mean it don't slack. I like the color fading into the next hue, I wish I could use pastels like that, but they don't agree with me.

i like how sharp some parts are, yet so blurry some are...the colors into each other vs the skeleton. fantastic. and then the bold colors with the neutrals...awesome. i like it.

awesome. it's haunting because, along with the bright colors (and ever present skeletal smile), it seems like the guy might be up walking around, and appears he's looking at something.

great job. moars?

Cool drawing, dude!

Art class for me, was always a matter of balance between closely following the project instructions and applying them to the production of topic matters as far removed (and preferably slightly offensive) to what the project had been intended to illustrate.

I know. I'm such a rebel.

Good job. Keep drawing skeletons. They are like doing guitar scales--good practice.
