Flow, Form and Force: Some final images.

Rhythm is a dancer. (12 short 10 second poses moving across a space.)

The short 10 second poses task was quite funny to do but at the start I found I was taking too long drawing each pose and running out of time. As the drawings went on, I found a simpler, easier way to draw the figures, with shapes and continuous line.

Like a Puppet on a String. (12 short 10 second poses of squashing and stretching.)

I had the same issue with these drawings in that I kept running out of time,  I also found that, when I tried to draw each pose like the person was staying in the same place, there was quite a cool effect from drawing over the top of each drawing, but it quickly got too confusing and just became a mess of lines. This meant that I went back to drawing across the page.

Ah, Push it! (5-10 minute poses of someone doing a push or pull movement.)

This task I found I could put more detail into the drawings, but I found myself putting too much detail into the first couple and running out of time again. The first of the two images I have posted on here I thought had worked quite well, the proportions and pose seemed right, but it looks like she's boxing instead of pulling a rope, which is what she was supposed to be doing. The second drawing I think worked better.



Strike a pose! (The longer 20-30 minute poses.)

 This was my favourite of the 4 briefs as it meant I could actually get some kind of detail in and spend some time working on the proportions. I think the one at the top worked best and the one at the bottom I found the most challenging because of the angle I was drawing from. 


Overall, I think I enjoyed this project a lot more than I thought I would, as I've never really been a fan of drawing from life, however after this project I think I would like to do more to work on my drawing ability.
