In this 4-week introductory course, you’ll explore basic techniques for figure and portrait drawing with live models. Discover line, shading, and proportions as you dive into an artistic study of human anatomy.
Join us to experiment with a variety of materials and start developing your unique style in figure drawing. The human figure offers endless inspiration for both beginners and experienced artists.
