May 1969
This is a figure study on a May 1969 Playboy cover. I tried several different mediums to draw the figure. Acrylics wouldn’t work because the magazine cover paper is slick and nonporous and can’t hold paint. I could use markers but they would fade over time. The best medium I found was grease pencils. I did over 100 playboy covers and you can see the whole body of work in my book “He Ain’t No Vargas” in my book gallery.
Printed on 270gsm acid free fine art paper.
