| Dussenberg...in progress |
Upon returning to the American Car Museum, I find I am not in shortage of a model. Although classic cars are not human, they have the same beautiful rhythm of form flowing through the subject. Furthermore they lend challenge to perspective and foreshortening as well as possessing a cannon of anatomy similar to human models I have worked with. Finally the variety is so vast that while you have eyes/headlights, nose/grill and mouth/bumper, the combinations are as unique as the features of a human portrait.
*In writing this entry week#13, I had done 5 sketches of cars from this museum. Unfortunately the book in which the sketches were done is no longer in my possession before the pictures of sketches were taken. Image submitted is a "work in progress" (done in week #14 and a 2nd session in #15) sketch of a redrawn auto (in the museum sketchbook) commemorating the previous efforts lost.
