My life my body so I can chose what I do!
Drawings of a plus size women. 
''If everyone were the same life would be boring''

Drawing from  life is one of the hardest skill to have, even when you are trying to draw yourself. Its difficult.
For my drawing I had a very tight top and leggings on, I then took photos of myself and draw the outline of myself. I then  added in the detail whilst everything was finished.!
I then wanted to make a sculpture of this piece because I wanted to make the statement that women today or ever don't have to be a size 8 to be beautiful, curvy women are just even more beautiful. 
This is my sculpture I make using semi pro ceiling, which is another type of white clay. First I craved the body shape and got the shape I wanted before I added detail. 

I craved the body shape leaning back to show she is comfortable with her body and her front is what you look at first. I didn't want my sculpture to be hiding her body. I will paining the figure white so it stands out instead of using a dark colour to hide it. I didn't up a head or arms on her because I just wanted to focus on the frame, arms can hide away a body and that's what I didn't want. I didn't want people to be distracted by her arms and head. 
                             I used London work as inspiration, part from the materials and size.
