How to draw the figure? # 1


1. Give due consideration to the placing of your drawing on the paper, for balance and arrangement. Make two marks to indicate the length of the drawing.
2. Block in with straight lines the outline of the head. Turn it carefully on the neck, marking its center by drawing a line from the Adam's apple to the pit between the collar bones.
3. From the pit of the neck make one line giving the direction of the shoulders, keeping in mind the marking of its center, which should be the pit between the collar bones.
4. Indicate the general direction of the body by outlining to the hip and thigh, at its outermost point, the side that carries the weight.
