Drawing the figure from life is a practice rich in history and one that can develop your drawing skills like no other; however, we can often fall into the same habits when drawing from life, as well as forgetting to challenge our preconceived ideas. This session, led by Fraser Scarfe, aims to disrupt some of those habits and provide ways of looking at life drawing afresh.
Through a series of different challenges, we will explore and reframe some of the fundamentals of drawing the model. Expect to re-examine some of the familiar components of drawing: line, tone and composition.
Using camera and visual effects we will draw in new ways, supported by reference images from artists who have done the same in their own practices, helping to push boundaries in picture making further.
Please note: online models will not pose nude. Models in this series will be semi-clothed.
Our classes are notrecorded and made available to watch later.
