This class is now run by David White 

Fri, 1/24 - 4/4 (No class 2/21) 1PM-4PM

Learn various modes of observation, expression, and representation of the figure while receiving an introduction to the human figure, gesture, and its structure.  With a focus on understanding anatomy, the instructor will guide you through learning formal techniques while leaving room for you to feel comfortable to experiment with new and creative ways to depict the human figure. Viewing art from the Museum's collection and the special exhibition, Twentieth Century Nudes from Tate, will provide inspiration, while in the studio, students will work from an artist's model. Model fee included.  

$315
