Minim


I usually start a sketch with a gestural swash of line, to map out parts of the figure that I will them use as guiding marks to make other marks. Usually those initial guiding marks get retooled or erased as I refine the sketch. Here I decided just to use them as the final marks and make a minimal nude. "Minim" is a word I never knew existed until I started doing the NY Times Spelling Bee game, so I thought it would make a nice title for this piece.
