My computer speakers played 'The Boxer' by the Chemical Brothers as I began this particular piece. As with the last few digital pieces I have done, this one began its life as a sketch. The sketch was drawn using black, red and blue Bic click pens in an attempt to find a new dynamic way of drawing. To a degree I believe I was successful.

The scanned sketch was subject to colouring, cutting and a few contrast changes. I wanted to achieve a sense of power and awe eminating from the character. I am as of now fond of boxing as subject matter and intend to find a couple of good photographic referances to work with in the near future.
