Description
Capture the ever intriguing human form the way that works for you, in any medium that you feel like using. This class involves an exciting approach to a subject that has fascinated artists for centuries. Each week we will focus on a different way of working with the life model and look at the way other artists were inspired. We work with a range of body types and forms exploring the figure both nude and draped. Expect to create a body of work which will hopefully inspire other artistic creations.
