My muscles still do the same thing...

I was telling a friend I was posing for an Anatomy class today. She ask but how can the see what your muscles are doing? I replied no matter my size, my bones, muscles, etc does the same thing as someone smaller.

When I pose for such classes, it challenges the knowledge of the students knowing how the body moves. No they can not 'see' my muscles. They have to use there knowledge of the human body to understand the pose I have chosen.

I blogged earlier, I pose on purpose. I chose poses that are going to test the knowledge, because they can not 'see' with their eyes. I never stand straight up and down, I am always twisted and leaning.

I love what I do and I am good at it.

This was one of the biggest compliments I have received thus far from a Professor. During an Animation Class, Professor Steve Gaffney felt inspired enough to draw me while I was posing.

There are many that think a muse like myself would not be used for an Animation Class, because you can not readily see what my muscles are doing. But it is the challenge to identify where and what my muscles are doing and testing the students knowledge of the human body.
