I really enjoyed drawing the models, it is a challenge. The contrast between proportion and space, and anchoring the model in the space, is a constant challenge especially with poses that are under a time constraint. These constraints forced, at the suggestion of the teacher, to try a new style of drawing. I like to draw with light, short strokes to mask out a picture, but this technique is not as applicable to model drawing as others. Mrs. Rifka suggested that I start with strong long strokes that place the body on the page and work from there. I found that this method worked really well and allowed me to complete many of the drawings before the end of the pose. I also feel like this style made me more confident in my proportion and original masking of a piece.
Henri Matisse:
Matisse's interpretation of his subjects are characterized by strong dark outlines in an extremely flat nature. we see that the characters are place at different depths in the painting, but they are still flat. His figures are also anchored in the piece, a general trend in his pieces, with detailed and layered backgrounds.
