It's just sort of matter-of-fact for me really. Drawing is illusion. BTW, the tutor is very skilled in dynamic anatomy, to which I cannot claim such a skill...yet perhaps.K.M.Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08838243612224959710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8976263999170875491.post-76548632894967623222010-07-26T12:20:54.282-07:002010-07-26T12:20:54.282-07:00This made me think of all the animated stuff I wat...This made me think of all the animated stuff I watch. The best ones actually do a style where they 'blur' the animation when fights and what not happen. They do that because it mimics what the eye sees, which is an impression of the actual action rather than it's specificity in all it's anatomically correct glory. So in this case, even if you traced it, we've been trained to 'correct' what is already "correct" to make it more dynamic and what not.<br /><br />To give a little credit to the tutor though and not totally ruin his/her day, they might have been confused on some parts of the anatomy since maybe some shadows etc. are missing to show foreshortening/things receding?<br /><br />IE, people who take pictures of sports during a game take tons of photos, but only a few of them ever look very good. Most look bad because the human body doesn't fit the 'image' we've given it and expected to have at all times. But when you're just watching from the sidelines, it all looks incredible, because every 'frame' is blurred together into an overall impression.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
