I recently saw a dotted circle painting by Damien Hirst which can be seen in my contextual studies notebook.  Although his work doesn't have much to do with my project so far, he did give me the idea of drawing my figures with dots rather than a full silhouette.  Here are some of the dotted pictures from my sketch pad.

 

This idea never really took off as it was too time consuming and I personally thought the silhouette was more effective.  Having said that, although I didn't run with it, it's good to try out new things!
