Figure Drawing Update: Osher Figure Drawing Class

In Friday's Osher class, I focused on foreshortening, using tornado drawings to help us get a sense of the terrain we were drawing (see the last drawing on brown paper).  A tornado drawing consists of cross contours, so in essence, you are drawing loops around the body, the arms, the legs, and you can see where the lines stack up one upon the other in the foreshortened segments.
