This week we had to draw a life model mainly concentrating on the posture and showing weight in the figure. I used Graphite stick to draw this image. I think that the slight curve at the top of the spine going into the neck positively shows the weight of the head on the top of the spine and is also showing the posture of the model. This small detail would be unique the the model. This technique is able to be used in animation. I am pleased with the foreshortening of the top of the left arm and the forearm of the right, because the way the arm hangs from the coat hanger shows that the weight of the arms are pulling down on the shoulders and putting strain on the fingers, which is what was intended. The model was in a long robe as you can see, with the creases in the robe at the bottom of the image adding depth. In order for improvement to be made, more detail would have to be added. However, the focus was on the posture and weight, so I thought it better to pay greater attention to them. Altogether I am happy with how I portrayed this model's posture and weight and also the rough style of the drawing due to how it shows the loose and relaxed state of mind I was in when I did the drawing.
