Figure Study - Tumblr Posts
quick sketch from my figure drawing class. thought i’d give this poor blog some love
these tags are everything!! I was asked to put nudity filters/nsfw tags on my sketches of statues in french museums, which I drew as an exercise in anatomy and posing. breasts aren’t sexual and the human body isn’t inherently sexual- if literal children are being taken on field trips to see the statues I drew it’s not nsfw. We need to unlearn the sexualization of the human body, ESPECIALLY in the fine arts. Like hell, I took a nude figure drawing class when I was 13, it’s art.
I could rant for even longer about the sexualization of breasts, especially about how it affects me as a transmasc, but it’s been something that’s bothered me ever since I was a little kid. if you’re bothered by nudity in art then that’s your own can of worms to open up- not mine or the artist’s.

A bit beefier dude than what I normally draw.
I'm in a bit of an art block lately, so I'm glad this came out as well as it did.

Not a very easy drawing to render considering I'm struggling through an art block, but it came out alright.

Something for the upcoming Mexican Independence Day.
The Deer Dance is an indigenous folk dance from northern Mexico, traditional to the Yaqui and Mayo peoples. The dancer playing the deer wears a headdress with a stuffed head of the animal at the top.

Starting a cheap resources thread for Artists!
Il start- this is a free website called Line of Action it gives you free images of posing humans to reference while drawing.
How it works:
Select the types of images you want. Ex: adult, male, clothed.
The website will collect images for you. Then it will ask you to time yourself. This isn't really necessary but it's good for practice.
Then it gives you a sideshow of images, go nuts!
I use this constantly, its a great tool, it's FREE and it adaptable, with new images constantly
Have fun!
