ANATOMICAL FIGURE DRAWING I

4 EVENINGS, (Mon., Wed.-Fri.) October 9, 11-13, 2017

Have you been seeing that your figure drawings are missing something and would like to improve them? It is most likely that you need a sense of anatomy. This class will highlight the defining characteristics of human form. We will go over bone structure, muscle placement and the overall outer forms so you really get a sense of internal structure. By the time this class is over, you will see a shift in your perception of the figure, and most likely see improvements in your own work. Be prepared to draw and sketch a lot for this class. Live models will supplement anatomical lectures and drawing time. This class is appropriate for students with no experience in anatomy. Drawing skill is helpful but not necessary. Option of sitting or standing to draw.

Oct. 9, 11-13, 2017 from 6-9pm:
Anatomy lecture from 6-7pm, Figure Drawing from 7-9pm

I'm excited to share my article, which made its way to the cover of "Artists on Art" magazine. This is the entire issue of the magazine, which I highly suggest subscribing to. It is very affordable and full of great information. This article covers the past decade of my studies of body movement: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3tShLgRCR_lWmpIVjZIdVdMTnM/view
