Howard Roark on the first page


Here's another male figure study. This one has more than one source and is a character sketch as well. I shamelessly admit that I am an Ayn Rand fan. The fan-famous first page of "The Fountainhead"  features the main character, architect Howard Roark, standing butt-naked on a granite cliff from which he will dive into a lake. I've always wanted to illustrate Rand, so I've taken this scene as an excuse to do more figure drawing. "Howard Roark laughed."
