In this next lesson in our Beginner Figure Drawing Series we are going to start taking what we’ve learned so far and start taking things into our own hands. We are now going to be Composing the Figure. Composing is really about adding story into your sketches, about guiding the audiences eye in a specific way, about altering the figure to our needs. In this lesson we’ll look over some advanced gesture and construction techniques, expand what we’ve learned about balance, do some demonstrations, and as always we’ll finish the lesson off with a timed drawing session, but this time with an extra challenge.
