Primary study focus
Study how broad fabric folds describe a kneeling figure without hiding the main body masses.
30-second exercise
Place the head, torso and pelvis as simple masses. Mark the visible floor contacts, then group the drapery into two or three large shapes.
2-minute exercise
Compare the fabric silhouette with the knee, hip and torso positions that can be inferred from visible forms. Trace major folds toward their support points and simplify the smaller creases. Leave uncertain hidden anatomy unresolved rather than inventing detail.
