This course combines drawing from the live model with brief, easy-to-understand lectures on anatomy. Each session will include a combination of long and short poses. Attention will be given to proportion, the structure of bones and muscles, capturing a likeness, and emphatic gesture drawings. Students will develop a deep understanding of how the body works while they practice drawing with assertion and feeling.
