In this workshop students will learn how to create more dynamic and lifelike figure drawings. Through demos, lectures, and practice, students will learn a clear process to navigate a figure drawing, aiming to take fear out of the process and replace it with a relaxed, focused attention that allows greater perception and understanding. Concepts and techniques that will be covered will include dynamic and rhythmic gesture, the block-in, accurate proportion and measuring, structural anatomy, line-weight, and three-dimensional form.
Achieving a good beginning to a drawing is one of the most important skills to learn. The first day will be devoted to short poses, giving students multiple opportunities to practice the skill of beginning a drawing in a way that sets one up with a solid foundation for success. The next day will allow students to develop these ideas in more depth with a longer pose.
The first half of each day will explore these ideas through demonstration, lecture, and Q and A. In the second half, students will draw from the model and receive one-on-one critiques.
