Drawing a Reclining Female Figure

[New Masters Academy]

Danny Galieote will demonstrate how to draw a reclining female figure using the NMA Reference Image Library. You will start by seeing how to draw your lay-in with your opposing rhythms, action and spirit of the pose and finish with line, tone and final highlights on the toned-paper.

Materials

• CarbOthello Pencil – Burt Sienna and White
• Toned Paper

I am learning so much from Danny Galieote! I love his drawings so much, and could only hope I might be even a little bit as skilled as him one day! I notice in his tutorials a lot that he’ll say “I go over all this in my arm and hand drawing videos.” I can’t find these videos anywhere on the site, though. I’ve watched nearly all of his videos, and I particularly like the construction of the torso and the quick sketching lessons. Of course, the individual lessons on drawing a reclining female or drawing the torso in 3 colors… those ones are my absolute favorites! Anyway, could you please direct me to this “hand and arm” lesson he mentions? Thank you!
