Instructor - Emmy De MusisRendering the human form is the most difficult task in drawing; the beginning stages of construction are the most important. This 8-week course will address these early stages and their challenges. Working from the nude model, students will be given a step-by-step system that works to accurately capture gesture, proportion and body type. From this general block-in we will advance toward an exploration of the figure's specific contour and shadow line. This course helps students to master the early stages of figure drawing by practicing it. Most poses will be 2 weeks in length. All levels welcome. Cost $300.

Still Life, Bargue and Cast class with Jason Polins
Still life, Bargue and Cast class:
In this class attention to basic drawing skills via complex shape organization and compositional structure will be taught throughout the term. Bargue drawings are a process of flat copy work to teach a student about the mechanics of pencil and charcoal. Learning how to manipulate materials to express ideals of classical beauty thru reproduction of classical lithographs. Cast drawing is a continuation of the Bargue adding the complexity of rendering a 2D drawing as if it were a 3D reality, with a heavy concentration on values and accuracy. Usually cast work is charcoal on paper or oils on canvas. The still life component is for people to explore all the previous skills combined in a synergy of color and shape in order to push ones skills to new levels. Also using ideas like metaphor or purpose to a still life setup. Typically Still life work is oil on canvas, but it can also be pencil on paper as well as charcoal on paper. When: September 7th thru December 10th

THREE-DIMENSIONAL KINETIC ANATOMY STUDY AT RISD
Providence, RI
Dates: Thursdays + Fridays 06/30/11 - 08/05/11
Time: 9am-4pm
This intensive course in human anatomy for the artist combines careful perceptual study of specific models' bodies with clear conceptual interpretations of the essential forms of the human body. During class time, students sculpt in plasteline clay from live models. Outside of class, students work on an ecorche, or flayed figure, in which they first sculpt a skeleton and then the muscles. This combination of perception (looking) and conception (analysis) increases one's ability to visualize the human body as layers of overlapping, bulging surface forms on top of rigid, planar and symmetrical core structures. In order to develop this theoretical construct, the course focuses on the body's proportions, the types and ranges of joint movement, and the relationships between underlying structures and surface morphology. Ultimately, students are able to look at a model from one point of view and visualize it as a systematic structure that can be simultaneously seen and understood from all views in the mind's eye.
Prerequisite: None
Tuition: $2,250.00 Lab Fee: $50.00
Instructor: Jeremy Angier
