Overview
In this life drawing session, students will explore the fluid nature of wet media to create adventurous and expressive scenes of the figure immersed in different environments.
Inspired by the evergreen subject of the figure in the landscape, explored by artists such as Paul Cezanne, Henri Rousseau, Francis Bacon and Kara Walker - we will use digital technology to submerge the model into worlds that can open our imagination up.
Guided by tutor Nikki Gardham, students will be introduced to expressive methods of using wet media to build imagery and create unique imaginative compositions.
Each Digital Studio session makes use of the School's multi-camera digital studio to create drawing-from-observation opportunities that are only possible online. Tutors offer guidance throughout to help students approach different poses and get the most out of each session.
Please note: online models will not pose nude. Models in this series will be semi-clothed.
