Week 8: Anatomy refresher

This week's session consisted in refreshing our anatomy knowledge. This drawing was done in 20 minutes using pastels. To start of, the anatomy is mainly fine aside from the belly area which should have been a more compressed area because of the perspective of the artist. Hence, the proportion is fine aside from that area which needed revising. The pose is static, seen from both the legs and the relaxed arms. The horizontal line is high because of the position of the artist, and there are clear examples of foreshortening on the torso and legs. The vanishing point is in the distance above the head of the model.
The chromatic used has an impressionistic quality to it, though not realistic it does not fall short in showing the model in a way in which it can be perceived well by the viewer.
