Representing the human figure is a rite of passage many artists will undertake.

This is inevitable . . .

The visual interpretation of the body is a laborious process that may require many revisions and studies before reaching closure.

In addition to being a three-dimensional landscape with curves, ridges and valleys, the human form speaks a silent visual language articulated through symbols forming a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.

At first glance, these symbols might appear to be so unified with the form that breaking down the whole into individual parts will never lead to a holistic understanding.

Yet, by doing just that, neophytes slowly mature into masters.

That is the magic that all artists hope to experience.

Towards that aim, Virtual Pose ® is designed to promote a journey of discovery by enabling the artist to smoothly rotate the model a full 360 degrees at will.

This approach brings drawers, painters, and sculptors the next best thing to a live model while empowering the mind to build a better picture of the subject in a way that is intuitive, simple, and elegant.
