In figure drawing, learn the fundamentals of figure drawing through invention and design. This 6-week course will give you the tools to draw from a live model and teach topics such as light/shadow, gesture, figure construction, head drawing, anatomy, and more. We will begin the first half of the session studying our own anatomy such as our face and hands and then move into drawing a posing model. Please note, the model may pose nude and clothed and will only be drawn for 3-4 classes of the session.
