Week 9 - Basic Anatomy

Please Note!: Certain areas of the body have been left basic on purpose due to feeling uncomfortable during live sessions.

The final piece at the bottom was a 30 minute sketch which took in factors such as the ideal proportions of the human body, in order to better understand this multiple basic sketches were done before hand (seen above the final piece) the basic sketches took into consideration construction lines which are used to help guide the artist better understand how the skeletal structure would work in a certain pose.

To begin with the concerns the female models trapezius muscle along with the deltoid muscle were poorly drawn so in order to hide this a shaded background was produced and in doing so the model has a nice background to it however yet again a silly mistake was made, no shaded floor! It still looks like the piece is floating in mid air...

The table was used in order to give that three dimensional appeal although if less time was spent on the table more time could've been spent fixing those muscles.

There are also to many lines near the hands which creates a false focal point for the viewer.
