This class will focus on developing a system for breaking down the human figure, so that you can more easily draw from your imagination. In this class we will focus on simplifying complex anatomy into more iconic forms by way of manequinization. Once mastering these simple forms we will learn to position and manipulate them to achieve a better sense of dynamics. Other areas of exploration will include working from live models using exercises for committing to memory what you see. Figure invention is a priceless skill for any figurative artist looking to pursue a career in fine art, illustration or visual development.
