Male Life Drawing - Balance, Weight and Dynamism

























In this drawing above, the character is wearing clothes which can make it difficult to show the position and movement of the body. I feel I have succeeded in showing 'balance, weight and dynamism' in the whole drawing. Balance and weight are the same thing in this drawing, which was tricky because I had to show this in the posture of the model. However I feel that I have done this by showing aspects such as bent legs and the position of the shoulders when comparing them to the neck.

I have shown the dynamic pose through the way the model is standing. The model is holding a tennis racket, which is not shown very clearly in the drawing because of the angle. The stance of the model looks like they are either preparing to play, or are playing, tennis. I wanted to show this very clearly and I think I have done so. The drawing has very strong lines to suggest the feel of the movement of the model. 


The model was wearing clothes which in a way became very useful in the drawing. I have made the torso looks heavy by the lines and shading of the shirt. The shading was very light in some places and heavier in others that created a very balanced look. Overall I feel I have shown balance, weight and dynamism in many different ways.
