Life Drawing-FS105

Semester 2

Final Grade: A

***WARNING***
This course dealt with basic anatomy, proportions, volume, value and general figure structure. Therefore, we used live, nude models in order to gain our general perspective.
If you would prefer to not view stetches, drawings, or rough outlines of nude models please do not scroll down.
I would understand - it was hard for me, as well.

Content includes:
4 Assignments, comprehesive pieces for the class.
1 Final Book Portfolio, as part of our final.
Final sketchbook selections.
Midway sketchbook selections.
Beginning sketchbook selections.
Samples of practice pieces from lessons in class, outlining the 5 step process taught in class.

Step 4: Fleshing



We learned about major bone and muscle groups to give the realistic quality to our figures. In this semester we only focused on the muscle groups in the torso.
A perfect place to practice our 'T's'!
You can still see the basic shapes underlying the figure. They are our guide as to where we should place the muscles and protruding bone structures.

Bones:
Front

Back
Spine (neck and back)
Scapula (shoulder blades)

Front
Sternmastoid (neck)
Pectoralis Major (Pectorals-chest)
Rectus Abdominis (abs-stomach)
Obliques (love handles)
Serratus Anterior (sides over rib cage, under the arms)

Back
Trapezius (neck)
Latissimus Dorsi (shoulder blades, opposite of chest)
Gluteus Maximus and Medius

This allows us to draw muscles and bones on top of our 'basic shapes skeleton.' It also provides guidelines and direction for our value and volume.
