Diary ~ Dulcissima Finished

June, 2007

 

I just finished the the large version on "Dulcissima," yesterday. It was very fun, and I love it very much - I think its one of the most beautiful drawings I've ever done. Anyway, I took some photos in the process of drawing it which I thought I would share with you. I used Marcelito as a model more than I usualy do - he posed for all three figures in the drawing from life. Below you can see me putting some finishing touches to the drawing while Marcel poses in the background (with a guitar instead of a violin - I drew the violin from photos since I don't have one).

My friend Leif had dropped by earlier - I kindly suggested to him that he take off his pants, since I hate people wearing clothes in my studio. There was no particular reason for this, as I wasn't going to draw him, but I prefer my houseguests naked. Anyway, he took the photo above and the one below, where I am admired the finished drawing with Marcelito.

Afterwards, I felt that a brief photo session was in order, as so many boys were gathered in my house, so I stripped off my clothes and corraled my roomate into taking a couple of pictures in my bedroom, one of which follows below, with the three of us in bed,

And finally, the finished drawing, in a very bad photograph

And simply because he's beautiful, a photo of a beautiful and pensive Leif

I hope you enjoyed these photos as much as I enjoyed taking them (and being in them),
