Week 8: Anatomy study: male

 During this week I made some studies of the male body. I worked first with charcoal, doing some quick sketches and then made one piece in conté crayons (the piece below the first one). The sketches was made in 1 minute each and there for the was little or no time for proper measurements and one had simply to rely on your eye and hand to make it right.

 The time constraint was one of the reasons that made me to work with charcoal and conté crayons. Those two mediums allows the artist to work fairly and not make him to put focus on colours.

The other two drawings were made with more time at disposal. The main target there was to get the anatomy right and not pay to much attention on the light and details. Measurements and the proportions was much more important.
