| | Figure in Wood |
 | | Because curly/fiddleback figure is restricted primarily to the radial plane, trees with this type of figure do not exhibit any visible external evidence such as bulges, flutes, or bark irregularities (figures 16 and 17). | | | Detection of figure in living trees, either located in a stand or singly, is a difficult process and is considered by many to be an art developed only after many years of experience. | | | Intensive studies made in Europe on correlation of bark types with figured wood in birch have shown that certain bark characteristics are indicative of the presence but not necessarily any particular type or quality of figure (26, 27, 47, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 76, 78). |

| | While she had more articulation than many of the figures in the line, her sculpt really doesn't allow for it to be used particularly well. | | | I had no serious issues with any of the paint applications on this figure and her accessories. | | | This line is intended to be mostly statue, a little posing, and this figure is no different. |

| | This is also arguably the first figure ever made of a female wrestler -- while she rarely wrestles in the WWF, Chyna is a former PGWA champ who still appears in the ring. | | | The figure doesn't exactly match the image I had of Jill -- but since the characters were never rendered or portrayed very specifically, i can accept this as a totally valid interpretation. | | | A relatively close adaptation of the figure, and a figure that is quite attractive in its own right. |

| | John Jacobsen: Figure Drawings |
| | It is a life-long discipline, and I think it's unfortunate that most artists today do not undergo the extensive and continuous training in the subject that artists in the past have done. | | | Some of the studies creep into my finished paintings, but mostly they just get filed away. | | | I do figure drawing to memorize the intricate forms of the human figure, to have something to work on when ideas are scarce, and to just practice drawing. |

| | In languages other than English, figure skating is usually referred to by a name that translates as "artistic skating". | | | However, international competitions in figure skating were interrupted by World War I. | | | Figure skating is an ice skating sporting event where individuals, mixed couples, or groups perform spins, jumps, and other "moves" on the ice, often to music. |

| | This ambiguity can become a "figure/ground flip." Sometimes, we can deliberately create an image in which the most obvious choice for the figure (it's readily recognizable in the foreground) is not really the subject. | | | Most often, the figure is in the foreground--like the pelicans above or this boy fishing. | | | Throwing the figure/ground relationship off balance has various repercussions which can create interest in your photograph. |
