Gravity Modeldrawing


It's part of traditional art training: drawing a floppy, drooping art model posing on cushions. If you look closely (not at these drawings though) you will see a watch that tells the model how long she has posed for. During the breaks in the session she puts on a bathrobe. I always thought art models were caught on a planet with stronger gravity than our Earth. They looked like that to me although the reality was just that the model was tired of posing fighting against ordinary gravity.
