Figure drawing classes

It's hard to believe it's already February! Time is flying by :) I'm excited about the current painting I'm working on and hope to share it with you soon.

I have two upcoming figure drawing classes.

I've decided to shake things up a little and move my Long Pose Figure Drawing Class to a Saturday afternoon starting February 22nd! I've also added one more session to the class making it a 5 week class. I love teaching this class as it fills a void in Victoria for traditional figure drawing. By having a number of session to work on your drawing, you get a chance to really delve into the drawing and the beauty of the human form.

I also have a figure drawing Block-In Class starting Thursday evening March 6th. The block-in is a very important step in drawing well, it's the foundation and core that everything is built upon. If it's built well, then it's easier to bring the drawing to life by modeling the light as it plays across the shapes and forms. By working on a new block-in each week we get better at seeing the big shapes and proportions. The more we do the better we get.
