The Beauty of Art

This was my final project for my Figure Drawing class. It measures about 3'x1.5' and is done in charcoal. I enjoyed the class but the size of this was challenging! It was put on display at my college promptly after the critique and has been up ever since. I was debating whether to upload this because I couldn't really get a good picture. But it is quite possibly the one piece I'm most proud of so in the end I wanted to submit it.
Here's the beautiful reference I used to create this (so everyone can see my mistakes xD): Nude Figure 1
