This is a 30 minute drawing using pencil. The center of attraction were lightnig and muscle distortion. The vantage point chosen allowed me to clearly see all of the muscle definition on the back of her body.
The way the model is bent shows a closed pose with the muscles on her back stretched that shows energy, but at the same time the position of the head indicates a relax state, which I believe balances the whole image. What also works are the shadows and the contrast between her left and right side. Perhaps a darker tonal variation could provide even stronger shadows and muscle contraction though after 30 minutes of drawing I was afraid of ruining the whole thing.
