Figure Drawing & Painting

Working from a live, nude model, we will be using innovative techniques and media to draw and paint abstracted interpretations of the human form. Understanding of the fundamentals of painting is recommended. This class is based on group instruction.

This class will apply a creative approach to working with the figure. We will investigate the suggestion of the human form through line, form, paint, drawing, and mixed media. There will be a live model every week.

Bring Sketchbook, canvas, and paint every week
