Drew this at work while waiting for my stuff to compile. Main objective was to try and convincingly portray a person in motion. Decided to use my character Ghani, since she's exactly the type to hurdle over walls (or, in this case, use them as a springboard to a rooftop). I think I managed it this time.
Something that was fairly helpful in adding to the sense of motion was the decision I made to put her in fairly loose-fitting clothing. Having windblown hair and clothing is a nice visual cue for suggesting movement... and I think this is going to become the norm for my characters, since wind is thematically important to their story.
Planning to shade and/or colour this in the near future, if free time allows.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Have a great time everyone and please fav this article so as many people can see the featured works. I would recommend seeing each one and faving them too.
