3rd Entry for January 29, 2009







These were all 2- and 3-minute poses that A- took. with that length of time it is possible to add a little bit of explanatory shading, and more detail about the straps she was using to stay aloft.

In the last pose in this set of studies,there is a second silk strap that her arm is resting on, running under her shoulders. I neglected to add the line in the study while setting it down. Not having it there makes the pose look even more like a balancing act on a swing, and underscores what a role the points of support - above or below - play in conveying how someone maintains whatever position they are in.
