Aesthetic Development: Life Drawing No.4

A few 90 second practice sketches fro Posemaniacs.com.




In aiming to further develop skills in drawing the human form, I conducted a series of 90 second sketches utilising posemaniacs.com. Its a great tool as it allows additional angles to be captures, such us upwards and downwards views not easily recreated in a studio.

Short timed poses have increased  my ability to quickly evaluate and identity the features that most communicate the form with little line work. As well as which subtle line details will communicate the orientation of a calf or direction the face is turned to.

These exercises also test and expand the depth of understanding of the human form and can be a means of revealing the features one most lacks an through understanding for in regards to capturing the form in a sketch.
