Valkyrie Sketches

I'm trying out a new way to sketch. Instead of using the pencil then outline with ink, I went straight with a drawing pen and drew anything that comes to mind. It's risky but I let myself go, forgetting the errors and pretend I am in Salvador Dali's painting. Sometimes I feel like Isaac Mendez when I feel the pin tip on white sheets of paper. I close my eyes and visualize.

"Einherjar"
I thought of Valkyries, I imagined an Einherjar being carried to the sky by two women the moment he dies. To Heaven or the Halls of Valhalla. I drew the women covered in white sheets instead of dressing them up in armor, which pretty much reflects how Angels are drawn in the old days. The cartoon does work when it comes to the Suspension of Belief.

"Warrior Woman"
I followed this train of thought with another drawing, this time with my calligraphy pen. A woman like the angels in the previous drawing in fictionalized body armor with a bit of Roman, English and Japanese inspired look. I'm currently experimenting with this straight forward drawing style which may help me out in understanding how French comic books work.

Contemplating:
I recall Nazreen and Aziz explaining that in Art there is a constant theme that works in every artwork. While walking around with Alif the Wiseman during the PTEB Art Exhibition, he thoroughly explained this in great detail like how each student artist has a particular theme that hits deep close to home. I remember Nazreen made a Fox themed artwork inspired by the 4 seasons. Then I wondered what my theme would be? I have been sketching alot and I think it may be related to War and Women.
