Composition for Figure Drawing
Do you love figure drawing but struggle with Composition?
I began my artistic journey with a passion for figure drawing. I loved to draw from life and create characters from imagination. But, when I wanted to make a high quality, finished piece, I struggled with the composition.
Although my figures were drawn well, The finished image usually turned out flat and lifeless. Does this sound familiar?
How I made my breakthrough
After years of focusing on figure drawing, I discovered several world class designers and composition experts. With their guidance I dramatically improved my composition skills and was also able to apply these new skills to my figurative work.
Eventually I became a professional movie poster artist where I was able to combine my love of figure drawing with powerful composition tools and techniques. These skills helped me to create dynamic compositions and illustrations for projects like Deadpool, Shaft and Lord of the Rings.
