Incorporating figurative drawing...

We have been told (on plan too) that we have to incorporate figure drawings into our final three dog ideas. We have to do about 30 figurative drawings anyway, so I was looking through mine to see which ones i could maybe choose. It doesnt have to be the full body of a person, but just an element of the figure. Like hands, face, feet etc. I would like my human figures to be watching the dog ideally.

 I really like the idea of using clapping t my figurative image, because two if my ideas are inspired from sporting events, so I thought it would be nice to put in a bit of this element. I also like the idea of encouraging the dog to exercise
 I think side profiles are a good idea to may incorporate it in as well, because it will look like they are watching the dog.
I just think that this figurative drawing is very interesting, it's drawn in starbucks and is a girl sitting funnily on a chair with her back to me, I liked the shape.

I really liked the pose of this one. Was so hard to draw out quickly though!

another side view of a man working on his laptop in a cafe, so he always kept the same pose. I really like the idea of using a profile.

this one I drew on the train the other morning when I was coming back to sheffield. She sat still for AGES! I was really pleased because I wanted another profile of a person, to put towards this figurative drawing within the final pieces. So I think I managed to get a good image of her, unfortunately after a while she did realise I was drawing her and then she kept moving, I'm not sure if it was because she wanted me to draw her in a better pose or what...I really dislike when people try to look natural because they know you're drawing them, even though they dont look natural at all. This figurative drawing has definitely taught me to be sneakier when I am sketching people.
