An Easy Way to Foreshorten Figures

Mark as Completed
Patrick Jones
Let me walk you through how to draw a foreshortened figure using a rhythm-first approach. We focus on gesture, anatomy, and how to use camera distortion in a creative way. I explain tools like the mermaid’s net, go over the key muscles and bones, and talk about exaggerating forms to make the rhythm and clarity stronger. The goal is to draw with feeling and trust your instincts.

A truly inspiring lesson, @Patrick Jones. The calmnes and precision of your explanations as well as the "show not tell" of your narration stand out. Furthermore I sensed some resistance in my understanding the human body and your approach – wich is always an invitation to consider your asumptions. Love that! Thank you for sharing and good success with your course. Have a nice day, you made mine. 👋🏼
