Taught by CFA faculty member Evan Kitson, this course explores the vitality of the human figure via gesture, rhythm, and structural movement cues. By studying the form and functions of the human figure, we're able to gain greater insight into the many ways the body may compose itself.
In this six-week online course, we'll spend each lesson on a major concept relative to representing the human form in various poses (non-static!) In these drawings, we'll prioritize gesture, proportion, perspectival cues, structure, as well as character and action. We'll be making use of photography, historic drawings, paintings, and sculptures as our dissected source imagery, giving us a wide variety of materials and methods to discuss.
This course is ideal for someone looking to get into figure drawing or someone looking to refine their current figurative skillset. Optional references will be provided. Material use is very open. Class recordings will be available for an additional six weeks after the course ends, giving participants lots of time with the material!
