Jumping for Joy!

 

I love this drawing! It is full of action and joy! What do you think? Am I right? It makes me smile.

Here is an older boy or young man, in his robe, jumping rope. I love the angle of his head/face, it was a totally different way of drawing a figure. He even has slippers on!

There isn't much in the way of shading but the drawing has dimension because of his robe flying out at the bottom. The hair gives the picture movement, along with the ties for his robe, just bouncing up and down.

This was a fun drawing to do, and I hope you like it. I used a mechanical pencil on white paper. I used my sketchbook from Mead Academie.
