The human figure is a complex construction composed of a rigid frame overlaid with soft, rounded, elongated muscles. Its main volumes can be described with a series of interlocking ellipses. There are no straight lines in a body. And it is symmetrical. When laying out a figure drawing, try to do it with a series of interlocking ovals. This will insure that the figure maintains its dimensionality, its roundness in space. This roundness applies to most objects in nature. 101 Things to Learn in Art School Kit White © 2011 Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Kit White
