Week 6: Pose & Posture

Three 5 minute sketches focusing on pose.

The central pose has a good line running from the left side of the body down to the foot, forming a good area for the eye to travel. The feet in this picture, especially the left one, are not drawn very well, however, and have no real sense of anatomy, which is a contrast to the other areas.

Proportions in both images of the right are generally good, the rightmost one is not entirely accurate as the body appears elongated in proportion to the legs, but the arms exhibit good pose, giving a sense of what the woman is looking up to. The pose in the central image is also effective, showing a sense of sorrow or depression, as the limbs hang down and the face is turned towards the ground. The poses in all three tell a definite story of a woman who is depressed changing her attitude, which makes the three rather powerful when put together.
