The Figurative Sketch in Oil

Sorry!

No performances are currently available.


Experience the spirit and energy of the figure in poses that reach beyond the classics.

Students will focus on the intersection of drawing and painting through quick studies of the model. The essence of the form will be explored with painting exercises based on gesture, contour and value. This class is fast paced, so bring plenty of energy, paper and canvas to express yourself. During the morning session, the poses will change frequently. After lunch, class slows down and students create a painting from a single pose. We will look at artists who address the figure with a contemporary attitude and contrast them with historical approaches.

Prerequisite: One semester in Drawing and one in Painting.

 

4 Sessions: $375
