All of the principles of drawing can be found in the human figure. In this class the student will work from life in a variety of mediums. Attention will be paid to: movement, proportions, anatomy, and the underlying geometric construction of the figure. The objective of this class is to gain the knowledge necessary to conceptualize the figure as well as to create individual works of art. Demonstrations and critiques will be given. This class is open to age 18+.
Throughout this class different drawing mediums and materials will be discussed and demonstrated. Students are encouraged to explore and discover what they prefer.
