Practical Task - Human Body Dynamics. Using Indian Ink and Ink Washes

In this task I needed to produce a series of sketches of a nude model in different positions by using ink and ink washes. I think using this technique is time-saving because you can control the thickness of the ink depends on the strength of your hands and also the value scale by adding more or less water.

The challenge in the task for me was catching the right proportion, since I couldn't erase once I drew, knowing the accurate proportion of each part of a human would be vital.

After the feedback session I realized that I sometimes focus on the outline too much, such as the parts facing the light, I could just leave them blank and only outline the shadow parts, so that the contrast of the lighting would be more obvious.
