Week 7 - Life Drawing (Dynamic Poses)


Both drawings were created using soft pastels on coloured A3 paper. The aim of this drawing session was to study dynamic poses and describe the shape of the human figure using coloured shading.

The first image manages to describe the rotation of the model, and the shading accentuates the shape of the human body. Proportion should have been worked on more, as the feet are clearly too large compared to the rest of the body. This issue could have been avoided with good measuring.

The second drawing displays a great sense balance and weight, with good anatomical proportions. The muscles are nicely contoured and the shape of the subject is implied with good shading. The high contrast of the shading also adds a nice overall effect to the drawing.
