Composition in the figure

Hi, friends!

I’ve decided to open it up to everyone for three days, so that those who aren’t subscribed, or are subscribed at a different tier, can get to know my blog a little better and maybe stick around longer :) So a special hello to everyone new!

In this video lesson I talk about the rules of composition as they apply to the figure. How do you lay the work out on the page so it looks convincing and pulls the viewer in? How do you make the silhouette expressive enough to land a wow effect? What is a counter-silhouette and why does composition need it? How do you learn to steer the viewer’s eye? This is where the script calls for evil laughter — look at us, we’re going to control people!

Enough questions — hit that magic play button and watch the lesson! You can even take short notes, so the knowledge really settles in the back of your mind and surfaces at the key moments while you draw.

Thanks for watching and for the support!
