Advance your skillset at capturing the human figure and anatomy in your artwork. Learn about proportion, likeness, techniques of color mixing and composition, then apply what you learn in developing a canvas. Grow your technical ability at figure ground, foreground – middle ground – and background by placing the human figure in space. We’ll begin the first day with drawing from the model, loosening up with some gesture drawings in charcoal or conte crayon. From there, we’ll have a longer pose where we add in color with washes of acrylic and/or oil paint, developing use of color and placement of skin values, etc. We will graduate to a long half-day poses which those students who want to capture the figure in a painting medium can switch to their oil or acrylic paints. Demonstrations will be given by Vicky throughout the two days of poses. This workshop will change the way you interpret the figure!
