Take your figure drawing abilities to an advanced level through this intensive Figure Drawing workshop.
The workshop emphasizes the most challenging aspect of figure drawing: working from live models. You will study human proportions and basic anatomical structure, complete detailed studies focusing on the head, hands, and feet, practice both rapid sketches and extended drawing sessions, and produce a finished figure study that showcases your developing skills.
Premium grade art supplies and the model's session fees are included in the workshop registration.
