Figure Drawing: Non-Human Anatomy



This drawing has a nice balanced/ weight, you can see the legs resting on the stick holding the weight while the head is leaning forward and the tail is supporting the body giving the bird balance, we can see it has a nice pose firmly standing on the stick while the head is looking at a bit of an angle instead of straight on.

We can see the bird has been textured with feathers to  give it more depth, we can tell the bird is static in the position it is standing.

We can see its been drawn from an, the side view which is better than a front view but it could of been drawn from a better angle, we cant see muscle structure as there is fur covering it. the stick thats drawn seems a little out of perective

Figure: Movement

The three stances have nice pose, the weight is distributed evenly
The pole the figure is leaning on is helping to show good balance
and it tells us that the figure is doing a rowing motion it helps to capture the movement.
The position of the figure is helping to show the viewer the direction the figure is moving

The shoulders, torso and hips gives us a good sense of the leaning that's
taking effect as the figure moves
We can tell the figure is doing dynamic poses as the poses indicate he's moving
We see the figure is in taking shape of an open form

Some of the proportions are wrong, the first and third figures right arm
 is too short stopping at the pelvis
The first figures left leg from knee to toe seems to change direction to the femur.

Figure Posture and Pose

This figure has nice proportions but the feet seem out of proportion
We can tell this drawing has nice balance with the way the weight of the
figure is distributed leaning on his right leg holding the ball while having the left foot stop him from falling
The pose is really strong we can see its a static pose because the figure is not moving
We can tell the way the figure is facing by the way the figure has positioned them selves.

We can tell the figure is in an open form as we can see his spine leaning backwards
and the way the legs are spread apart.

The legs look a bit short, the shoulders and hips could be tilted more to 
give that sense of balance on back leg.

Figure Drawing: Anatomy

We can see the buttocks squashing as the weight is being held by the buttocks
the legs are helping the balance, the figure is leaning slightly forward to help the balance we can see this because the spine is curved slightly
The proportions look nice, the humerus, ulna and radius go below the waste
the shoulders clavicle seems to be in proportion but there should be at more of an angle
to emphasise the leaning
We can see the figure is in a static pose as she is sitting still

We can see a real sense of depth in the legs and the spine because of the
knee being bent and the spine being shaded in the middle

The perspective of the chair seems off
The hips should be angled a bit more
we see some muscle tone but not enough
