0521 - Advanced Figure Drawing

Course Description

For those with experience drawing from the figure who want an integrated studio course focusing on more developed and informed drawings, this course helps you take your figure drawing to the next level. The figure is considered as both a form and volume in space, with gesture, sequential movement and spatial concepts as essential aspects of the learning. Introduction to the fundamentals of human anatomy allows students to conceptualize the body from different angles and explore a variety of poses and sequences, including dramatic foreshortening and multiple points of view. Students ultimately learn to compose figures in context with attention paid to building dynamic compositions.
