#speed study

[lainyart]

Day 16 Today was a speed study! I set a timer for 30 minutes and let loose - admittedly on paper that wasn't ideal for the medium but I had fun anyway. :P

Created with Panpastels and soft pastels on Strathmore toned grey paper. 5.5x8.5 inches in 30 minutes.

A study I did of the cover of a pulp novel, and also the first page in my new watercolour sketchbook that i’m using exclusively for thesis work. It scanned very slightly off center and it’s iRriTaTinG mE but I refuse to re-scan it because I my laziness is more powerful than my frustration.

"[Ash] has a slightly more bounding gallop. She has highest loin/back ratio in the study and total range of motion. She is able to move her pelvis from vertical at contraction to past horizontal - creating a slight v at the lumbo-sacral junction. The length of loin allows for a greater "push" from the rear legs." The fastest recorded runner in the borzoi speed study.

“N has a better loin/ back ratio than G & S, but has such an extreme forward set to her hip joint that she cannot extend her rear enough for speed. Notice how low her hind feet stay toward the ground at extension. Be sure to notice what a wide triangle her pelvic marks make.” Footage of the slowest recorded borzoi in the speed study. Compare her to the fastest borzoi in the speed study. Take note of the difference in length of stride, spine flexibility, pelvic rotation, and air time.
