Other topics are two-and-three-dimensional ways of translating form, how perspective and viewpoint are used with the figure and affect scale, exaggerated foreshortening, diagrammatic and expressive line quality, facial expressions, hand and foot studies, capturing movement through gesture, and animal drawing.
