This class is designed for people of all levels. From novice to pro, the need for continued practice and the understanding of human anatomy is essential in making a more personal figurative drawing. Through thought-out and easily understood exercises, I will show you how to understand the anatomy, so that you can draw with confidence.
- Skeleton. I will go over basic structural aspects of the human skeleton and also go over the differences between the sexes.
- Focus on the lower leg and foot. Also the thigh and glutes.
- Front torso muscles. Pectorals, abdominals, external obliques, serratus anterior.
- Back and shoulder muscles
- Arms and hands
- Head and neck basics plus an overview of the body.
- Also demos on the reclining nude and how to draw this challenging pose.
