This is the 3 step life drawing method that I teach to my students and use most of the time that I am drawing the live model. The reason is that this is a flexible and malleable approach to figure drawing that allows you to continuously change your mind, correct errors, and cover mistakes as you gradually develop the shading. No need to start with perfect proportions! Focus on the PROCESS and continually observing shapes and eventually the proportions will come together.
Step 1 is really the foundation of the whole process, and I usually take about 20 minutes in this step alone. It goes by really fast in this sped-up video but it is worth it to take your time and get a straight line block in to the best of your ability! Let me know in the comments below if you are interested in a tutorial on just this part of the process.
I have been teaching figure drawing for more than 10 years and it’s my favorite subject to teach!
