About Me
- Jes
- For the past three years I have been attending St. Cloud University; where i have been working on art as much as possible. After becoming very home sick i decided to transfer to UW Menomonie and continue with my work. I love hard work and being creative, so the move just seemed to fit.

This drawing was particularly difficult for me because the left leg is so extremely foreshortened. I tried to concentrate on the bottom of the foot, then moved my way back to get the most accurate representation possible.
this is one of the strongest drawings in your class/blog summary. good overlapping of the gastrocnemius in front of the hamstrings, the convex curve of the hamstrings making them come in front of the glutes, the roundness of the rib cage (again, the convex edge at the top of the rib cage), the nice indication of the gastrocnemius of the right leg (how it's darker than the lower leg to show it still in front of the lower leg).
like i commented in the earlier post, continue to add more internal form in your drawings--this is a big issue in life drawing one.
examples you could do in this drawing: hamstring/gastrocnemius tendons at back of knee, cross contours (just a few) to show difference between top of thigh and more distal thigh, bottom of rib cage, top of iliac crest in more detail and angularity.
good use of the entire page with the foreshortening--but you need to get more anatomical landmarks and cross contours on the inside of the outlines, and lighten the outlines so the form appears more open, not locked in. you can also begin to add more angularity to your lines, esp. in places where your line is passing over bone, then keep the line more curved as it moves over fleshier parts of the body. this will add more variety and make the line work more interesting to look at.
