Study group - arms 3
Light week. I spent most of the week doing some painting, rather than focus on these exercises. But class rolls on! The goal of the week was to combine some of the learning from anatomy into some gesture studies. So here we’re paying attention to how the bones and musculature contribute to asymmetric curves and give shape to the shadows on a figure. I picked a bunch of stock photos of people exercising at gyms, looking for clear muscle definition to make the job easier. I was striving to go fast; this whole thing took about 90 minutes, so roughly 10 minutes per figure. For the level of investment, I’d say these look pretty good. The arms are pretty credible all across, and even the abstract head/face shapes stand to scrutiny.
