The human face and figure is an exciting study but many students find it challenging or intimidating.
In this course, we help demystify this process with preliminary drawing exercises before moving on to fully realized paintings on canvas. Develop compositions for dynamic poses + examine different angles: profile view, 3/4 views, and non-traditional angles, like upshots, extreme close-ups + action poses to give our subjects a realistic feel. Learn how to capture expression with eyes and choosing the correct color palette. How to texture to represent hair, skin, clothing and fabric textures, and look at other types of surfaces like jewelry or glasses etc This is an excellent class for students working on portfolios, thinking about a career in the visual arts, building up a body of work, or are up for a challenge!
