Have you ever wondered how to draw people with greater ease and accuracy? In this class, students will learn the fundamentals of human proportions, and how to quickly capture standing and seated poses from reference and from life. For the latter portion of the class students will be introduced to drawing from a live figure model. With plenty of teacher demonstration of techniques including sighting, negative and positive space, and working with charcoal, this class aims to leave students with greater confidence in drawing the human body.
