Human Body Dynamics. Using Indian Ink and Ink Washes

 During this week's session, I have to produce a timed series of sketches of a nude model in different poses. I did not have time to take a lot of pictures of the process so I will be talking about the further understanding of drawing the human figure with the use of ink and inking techniques.

Because of last time, I enjoyed drawing curves on the human body a lot, with this model with a leaner build and skinnier. I find myself struggling to stop myself from giving the model more curves than he has. With inking techniques of wet runny ink progressing to the hard-line and concentrated ink, I found myself enjoying more and understanding more of the wet painting style that requires me to build up the model with blobs of ink and shapes rather than the thin lining. I would like to improve the weight line of the lining-only picture to create more dynamic and shows he foreshortening of the limps if I can redo it again.
