Drawing the Legs 3 - Everybody likes legs, when they are properly drawn! The Open Drawing Sessions dedicated to the legs are becoming very popular: in this third session we will look at the lower limbs from behind and from a flexed position to start practicing capturing the legs in movement and from foreshortened points of view.
