Turban (Contour)

This was one of the exercises in Contour Drawing that I did while taking a course in fashion illustration. If you've taken art lessons, I'm sure you know what it is (it's sort of like blind drawing - You can't look at your work while doing it). After if was finished, I was able to fill it up with oil pastel. It was a drawing of a male model wearing an elaborate turban. Come to think of it, I think it was just a big peace of cloth made to look like a turban. Whatever. This was the result and you can see underneath the lines going in all directions.

I like the colour composition of this piece and how you have given it a very stylised treatment.

It's a good piece and I like it.

Great V! Chuang is right about the cool stylization going on. Contour line drawing is always ver fun to me and I always love the results. Thanks for sharing man.

Thanks guys! It's a bit frustrating at first, but filling it in is the fun part.
