Focus

Instead of drawing the entire figure, we selected a portion of the figure and tried to create a dynamic composition in class last night.

How do you decide what interests you most in a pose? The light? The line? The shape? The combination of shapes?

Add to that the admonition to NOT chop off the model at a joint.

Portions of figures = good
Amputated figures = bad

A new challenge to bend my mind around. A new very interesting challenge.
