(fore)Short(ened) and Sweet

This was the first time I really enjoyed getting "stuck" with a difficult pose. Like a lot of artists, foreshortening has always filled me with dread, probably because I'm convinced I will fail - so I often do. This time, although I still see problems with my drawing, I was able to relax, let go and feel a little more successful. The foreshortened pose certainly has a lot more drama and vitality. I guess I've let the mathematical precision of linear perspective intimidate me. I realize it comes down to one simple rule: The eye must be the sole judge. Things closer to your eye look bigger than the things farther away.
