Beginner Level
This is an 8-week series. Class meets once every week. Students will learn to use the principles of anatomy to approach each stage of drawing a human figure, from the initial outline to the subtle tones and textures of the finished work. This class will start with the 8-Head Figure Measurement Strategy to explore body proportions. Students will then be introduced to Gesture Drawing, Line of Action, Foreshortening, and Perspectives and understand how these concepts can be applied to adapt and...
8 lessons//8 Weeks
Week 1Lesson 1Body ProportionsStudents will understand the fundamentals of basic body proportion using the 8-Head Figure Measurement Strategy.Week 2Lesson 2Gestures & MovementsStudents will draw action figures in minimized, abstracted gesture drawings that emphasize movement, proportion, and anatomy. They will learn to use the Line of Action to trace the direction of movement to enhance the fluidity of the figures.Week 3Lesson 3Perspective & ForeshorteningStudents will use overlapping shapes (ovals) in foreshortened views to organize and interpret the gesture into volumes and perspective while in proper proportion.Week 4Lesson 4Arm & Hand AnatomyStudents will start with a gestural sketch of the arm and hand, then flesh it out with shading to render tone and form.Week 5Lesson 5Leg & Foot AnatomyStudents will start with a gestural sketch of the leg and foot, then flesh it out with shading to render tone and form.Week 6Lesson 6Torso AnatomyStudents will start with a contour sketch of the torso with shapes, then flesh it out with shading to render tone and form.Week 7Lesson 7Head & Face AnatomyStudents will use the Loomis Method to draw proportional facial features, then render volume with strategic shading techniques.Week 8Lesson 8Dynamic Full Body FigureStudents will encapsulate all of the knowledge learned in the prior weeks to draw a gymnast with realistic proportion, fluid movement and tonal body parts.
Students will learn the principles of human anatomy and figure drawing, covering topics such as proportions, gesture drawing, foreshortening, and muscular anatomy. Through interactive sessions, they will develop the skills and confidence to create dynamic and realistic human figures, utilizing various shading techniques and blending materials for artistic expression.
