manikin madness

Manikin drawing is a fun and interesting way to teach students
 to draw what they see while using the concept of  proportion.  

Taking this a step further by dividing the drawing into

sections and adding a shading technique or textures

helps to create a complete composition. 

Students had the option to pose their
manikins, or to draw it just standing.

Some students advanced the assignment further and 

designed their own backgrounds and accessories.
