This course is a great transitional step for students who have taken figure drawing, and are looking to move into longer sessions with the model to understand form. In the course, students will be doing longer poses where they can slow down and investigate form and anatomy.The instructor will demonstrate and lecture on structural concepts to apply to interpreting the organic form of the model via planar and geometric constructions, as well as anatomical ideas and surface morphology. Objectives of this class include developing an "x-ray vision" for the structure of the human figure, understanding basic anatomical landmarks, and planar conceptualizations of major muscle groups.
