In my portraiture class, we are learning about feminine and masculine posing techniques. So for an assignment this week, we had to create silhouettes of both a male and female model to really get an idea of what makes a feminine and masculine pose. Typically, you look at the curve of a persons body to figure out the pose and it becomes much easier to see with a silhouette. On the left, you will see what is called an S curve which is a feminine pose. To the right you will see a C curve, and this pose is a masculine pose. Poses are not just limited to S and C curves, but these are two of the most common poses used. So if you are ever looking for a way to pose someone for a picture, these are two simple ways of doing it!
