As usual, Jeb marries mass with grace. I was surprised, after reading so many comments on this drawing, that it had been around a while. This work as well as all of what I've seen Jeb do shows-off a wonderful balance between mass, technique and femiminity that's lost in 99% of similar art dealing with muscular women. Also the monotone blue/black adds a great mood, along with the suggestiveness of the linework. I'm a big fan of "undercolored" work: ie: art that lets the drawing stand out vs multi-colored work.
Based on previous comments: I have no issue with what appears to be a missing shoe. I believe the shoe is still there; just lacking a toe strap. The ab-clinging minidress works for me, and her hands are in proportion to her general body thickness. Great little sketch dealing with a generally unpopular subject.
I know that this has been here for a long while, and I've had it as a favorite for a long while, but I keep coming back to all the long while. I just felt like giving it a shout out. I guess this is my desert island disc--in the Deviant Art world.
This is easily my all-time favorite piece of your gallery. I love how you've depicted this spectacularly powerful, yet feminine & genteel woman in an almost comically mundane setting as this. I've always thought that there was a kind-of romantic undertone to this pic, as if she was meeting someone for a date: "Sorry I'm late, it...well, you know (grin)" This piece is absolutely charming in all ways.
