Class Description:

This course will give artists the tools and techniques needed to represent the human form.

Explore the human form through four modules: anatomical study, creating the figure within an environment, capturing motion, and creating unique portraits. The class will be built upon understanding the body’s underlying forms through stereometry and anatomical knowledge. Students will be working from the live model and equipped with the necessary tools to create naturalistic drawings while maintaining their own unique artistic hand.
