This is a 15 minute Life Drawing study using a 3B pencil. I worked quickly to produce the basic form of the model that was still proportionally accurate. Whilst I feel I was successful in doing this, I could have paid more attention to areas such as the front arm to more clearly express its muscle and bone structure as the lines are very straight and not completely true to real life.
I used a hatching method of shading to quickly express the areas of the body which were in shadow, this contrast successfully prevents the sketch from looking flat and gives it a more realistic, 3-dimensional quality to the image. Whilst this was a study of the entire figure, I think I could improve in future by paying closer attention to detail around the head as it doesn't seem to fit right with the rest of the figure.
