CHILD BODY PROPORTIONS

CHILD BODY PROPORTIONS 
The illustrations at the bottom of the page explain how to use the size of the head as a measuring unit for drawing children of vari­ ous ages. If you're observing your own model, measure exactly how many heads make up the height of the subject's actual body. Begin the drawing below by lightly sketching a stick figure in the general pose. Use simple shapes such as circles, ovals, and rectangles to block in the body. Smooth out the shapes into the actual body parts, and add the outline of the clothing.


Your Jigure should be balanced on an imaginary ground plane and a vertical centerline.

Children are great Jun to draw, but because they generally don't remain still Jor long periods, start out using photographs as models
