I have always loved back views in paintings and drawings. My husband said once to me don't bother doing them. "Who wants to buy a back view in a painting?" The next day we walked into a gallery and there was a "backview", I think a Pino painting, selling for thousands. So there!
Will my drawing today for my 2010 challenge be 'hair today, gone tomorrow'? You tell me...
I kinda like what my BIC pen did with those wisps of hair on canvas.

This is lovely. Back views can be enticing, mysterious. I, for one, don't think I'd want a portrait of someone I didn't know, not especially. Unless it was particularly artful, I guess.
You know, you might need a challenge shower -- are you running low on Bic pens?

I love that , a challenge shower!!! I think we need to be on a boat cruising the marina!!! I must say Johanna, I am loving the Ink drawings and just as they are!! You make the Backview always so beatiful and femine...love it!!
Absolutely beautiful work!
Thanks Rosie
Back views feature prominently in the challenge because no hassle to put on FB. Full frontal perhaps not a good idea...we will have a party for sure when this is done.
