zee foot

I was gone the day that the class did this so I will do my best to comply with the assignment.
I received instructions from a classmate.

1.) Although I may have a biased view of my drawing, I feel that this is a fair representation of a foot. I did not have the bone or muscle structure as a  reference, so I did the best I could with defining the shape using cross contour lines.

2.) The way the foot was positioned helped create the 3d illusion in this drawing. What I mean is that I did not draw a profile of the foot on purpose.  I needed to show dimension, therefore I used two planes of the foot to communicate the shape of the foot.  In retrospect, showing three planes would have made for a better approach to showing 3 dimensions.

3.) I have not learned any of these landmarks yet. I will speak with you in class next time to become more aquatinted with the foot.

4.) The line thickness does not play a substantial part in showing dimension in this drawing. The illusion is relying heavily on the cross contours. The line is communicates best in the bridge of the foot. The lines become a bit confusing between the transition from the ball of the heal to the side plane underneath the ankle.
