By Betty Mitchell


Worldwide, fine art is among the sectors which have been developing highly. For artists to achieve the clients needs, they are required to be inventive and creative. Its significant for one to note down that art takes a lot of time to achieve the required structure thus you need to be thorough and devoted particularly in male and female nude drawings. It involves drawing human body form into many shapes and manner using drawing instruments. The scale with which artists express appearance can be into much detail, anatomical and loose though 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.

Whenever artists are drawing the human figure, they tend to take different approaches. Some will draw from live models, from photographs, skeletal models or from their memory and imagination. When it comes to courses, they mainly focus on life drawing. Ever since photography was invented, the use of photography reference has been common though its usually criticized for producing flat images that do not capture the dynamic aspects of its subject.

Imagination drawing is often commended due to the expression it brings about and also condemned for the inaccuracies that occur due to the lack of knowledge from the artist or little memory in visualizing the human figure. How effective an artist approaches this method is determined by the experience they have on using other methods.

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.

When it comes to the actual drawing, artists use pencils, charcoal sticks and others to draw on paper. The modern and contemporary artists can choose to exaggerate or distort proportions to emphasize the perceived mood of these models pose. Nude female and male drawing was invented many years ago.
