Figure Drawing

Study basic human anatomy, the hierarchy of the figure in art-making, and a variety of figure drawing techniques.

Figure drawings are essential portfolio pieces for applications to art and design schools. Working from reference or a live figure drawing model, students have the opportunity to draw a range of poses for short, medium, and extended periods of time. Students will also learn to establish the center line, measure and re-adjust for accurate proportions, and apply figure drawing techniques to other media and subject matter.
