By Betty Mitchell


Art is a sector that has been on the move all over the world. It requires one to be very creative to meet the needs of the consumers. Art involves a lot of time, hard work and dedication. An example includes male and female nude drawings. This involves drawing the human form in its various shapes and bearing by use of drawing media. The level of presentation can be from highly detailed to loose and expressive sketches.

Life drawing is whereby an artist draws the figure of the human by observing it as a live model. As for the figure drawing, it comprises of studying the figure to be drawn as one prepares for the more finished work like painting. As for figure drawing, its considered as the most difficult encounter of every artist and the entire courses are dedicated to the subject. Human figure can be expressed in the form of portraits, illustration, sculpture and many more fields.

Different approaches are used by artists whenever they want to draw a human figure. Some of them use imagination and memory or skeleton models, photographs and live models. Courses will mainly focus on the life drawing. Since the invention of photography, photography reference is common though its condemned for bringing up flat images which tend not to capture vibrant features of a subject.

Imagination drawing often is commended due to expressions that it brings by and for the inaccuracies which crop up due to lack of enough familiarity from artists or having little recollection while visualizing the human body. How successful an artist uses this process is decided by their understanding they have while using other techniques.

Artists will focus their attention on the shapes formed through interplay of light and the dark values formed on the surface of the body whenever developing images. Anatomically is another way an artist can approach and they usually approximate internal skeletons in the body through laying internal organs, musculature and cover the shape using skin and later using clothes. This technique involves study of the body internal structure.

Artists at times tend to loosely create bodies using geometric shapes that will resemble the body of what is to be drawn. The cylinders for the spheres and torso for cranium are among the examples of objects used in creating these resembling bodies. Artists have different ways of using them when drawing these nudes and it mostly depends on what they do best.

For artists that are working lacking visual references, there is that proportion which is globally accepted when drawing figures and its vital to note that an average human being is commonly 7 and a half heads in height. By use of plates made of paper, the illustration can be carried visually to demonstrate the bodies length.

Different artists are known to use different material in putting up their pieces such as charcoal, pencils, and other media known for this art. According to the modern artists, twisting proportions is seen as a way of putting more emphasis on the poses of the different models used. Having been invented decades ago, this form of art has considerably grown popular and keeps growing even bigger with each passing day.
