Anatomy Study: Worms and Birds
​
Working directly from a model (preferable) or one of the images in the Powerpoint below:
draw 3 versions of the human figure from below (worm's eye view)
draw 3 versions of the human figure from above birds's eye view)
​
​
Work traditionally using pencil, conte, chalk, or pen (color optional) using line and tone
​
These drawings should attempt to portray the figure in a convincing manner, using extreme foreshortening. Do not include any details such as facial features, or hair unless sketched in very generally.
​
​
Work from a live model or a photograph of a model.
The PPT below contains photographs of models in foreshortened poses.
