Push and Pull

For the last sequence of movements, we had to focus on the motion of pushing and pulling. this was a really intriguing area to focus on because I think it is easy to forget how much our lower body needs to assist the upper body when it comes to moving heavy objects. I asked Amy to show a range of poses, some showing push and some showing pull. I particularly found the pose where she is holding onto the wardrobe door but pulling away from it really interesting because it is clear from the positioning of her legs how big of a part our legs play when applying force to an object whilst keeping balance. I also noticed how much the positioning of the back and shoulders is influenced depending on which way her bodily force is being applied. In the time provided I also tried to apply more shading, because there was a lot more variation of shadowing this time, because bigger alterations in her body language in each pose.
