Final Piece: Figure

A 25 minute conté crayon drawing. This is a relaxed pose shown by the position of the arms, the slumped shoulders, and how the model is laid back in the chair. All of these indicate that the muscles are resting, and that the weight is mostly on the chair. There is contrast to this in that one of the legs is on top of the other, and the toe is pointing. While this is also a resting pose, it appears to be one that would not be able to be kept up.

The way the chair has been sketched in helps to give the impression that the model is relaxed, and also helps to create a sense of the room that this drawing is in. This is further aided by the shadow on the floor, which also adds tonal value to the left side of the drawing, balancing out the composition.

Overall the anatomy in this drawing is decent, there are about 7 heads following the shape of the body, but the legs appear to be slightly too short, and one appears to be slightly more twisted than it should.
