Tutorial 69 - Curves and Corners
🕑 Added 2016-03-10 08:21:09 +0000 UTCOk so the dude is way less sexy than Jessica Rabbit. I'm not sure if curves actually make men sexier. I think a sense of humor does that job with guys, and maybe if they've appeared in a Nespresso commercial. But curves generally make things sexier, most of us might agree.
There's a biological reason for this attraction. It's something innate in almost all of us. The human form is curve upon curve and when we layer curves together sharp corners appear in the negative spaces.
Observe these areas in the figure and translate them into your work to appeal to the reptilian brain in all of us.

I really like this one and it's something that I feel I'm forgetting in my figure/gesture studies. I'll definitely try to keep it top of mind in future.
