The exterminating angel

Last night’s sketchbook session was brought to you by Thomas Adès’ The Exterminating Angel. Based on the 1962 film by Luis Buñuel, this contemporary opera is basically a “what would David Lynch do?”. So I liked it. Also, good use of the Ondes Martenot for all the rabid Ondes Martenot fans out there.

I have been working back into more realistic anatomy lately as I think my abstracted figures have suffered from a lack of traditional drawing practice since my college days. Gotta brush up on drawing bones under flesh before taking the bones out.
