Dancing Skeletons

Objectives:

I can demonstrate that I can draw a skeleton showing scale/proportion.

I can demonstrate that I can add shading to show the transition from shape to form.

I can demonstrate that I can adjust the bones within the skeleton to give the impression of the skeleton dancing.
