MON PM - Figure Drawing from Life with Jean Krumbein

Learn to draw the human figure, where the principles of form and proportion as well as gesture and movement are applied, with the aid of a live nude model.

Learn the fundamentals of capturing the human anatomy with traditional techniques.

In this class, you'll learn how to:

• Develop better observational skills
• Hand-eye coordination
• Draw short and long poses
• Learn human proportions through observation of a live model
• Mark making with charcoal
• Work with lines, shape, and value
• Draw in a loose and expressive way

Students will create several sketches of each week's live model. Gain experience, confidence, and knowledge with how to draw from life and capture the human body (each week's model will be nude).

Great for beginning and intermediate level artists.
