This course is a 6 week introduction to drawing the human figure from life.
The Block-in is the first stage of a drawing - the initial sketch. You will learn how to quickly and effectively capture the dynamic gesture, flow, and masses of the figure.
By practicing countless starts over the 6 weeks, you will learn the shapes, proportions, and basic structures of the human form. As the weeks progress, you will be given an introduction to basic anatomical landmarks and structural ideas intended to prime you for the following class in anatomy should you choose to take it.
While intended to lead right into the next course on anatomy, this class can also be taken as a stand alone intro class for anyone new to figure drawing.
Some drawing experience is helpful but not required. This is an intro course and beginners are welcome!
