Workshop: Figure Drawing

-Botticelli

Workshop: 'The Figurative Nude'
An investigation of drawing techniques and mediums inspired by the Great Masters of the figurative nude. Instruction and demo in wet or dry mediums. No live models. Participants work instead from high quality photo reproductions (a method widely used in academic teaching and learning contexts) of Delacroix, Manet, Nevelson, Degas, Renoir, Modigliani, Michelangelo and more. Can’t draw? No problem, begin with a simple gridded sketch, a time-honored method even the Masters employed. 


Workshop: 'Figure Drawing Clothed & Costumed'
Learning how to draw the clothed figure, inspired by the works of the Great Masters … Degas, Manet, Matisse, Klimt and more … is a time honored tradition. Copy a simple gridded sketch, observe instructor demo, and then follow along step-by-step.
