Description

This course will provide the opportunity for students at all levels of drawing experience to explore the drawing of the human figure. Students will develop an understanding of the structure and form of the human body. A range of approaches will be covered that will encourage students to understand relationships of contour, form, mass, volume, line, movement, rhythm and gesture. This course will provide an introduction to anatomy. Emphasis will be placed on direct observations and their interpretation in graphic media.
