Life Size Figure Drawing


Artist Statement


I love the color yellow. I began with simple pastel strokes and it went from there. I choose to make an outline of the model on how I saw it at the moment. Her leaning to the side with her hand on her hip is what I needed and wanted to draw out. 

I decided to shape the model's body how she can be seen in person. She had on a hoodie and some jeans with her belt sticking out. As the kept going on I decided to add in the small details such as the knee shading and leg stance. I made the weight that she was putting her body on noticeable. I found myself making the head smaller than the body so I tried to adjust that by rounding out the strokes heavier and making the chin and neck thicker. I choose orange for the shirt under the model's hoodie because I believed that that well suited the color orange. 

In my future drawings of life size figures, I will choose to focus on even more lighting and shading. I also will continue to draw what I see in person.
