The figure can seem impossible — until you know where to start.

This is a practical introduction to drawing the human figure. In this structured, beginner-friendly workshop, you’ll learn simple techniques for understanding proportion, gesture, movement and shape while working directly from a nude model.We’ll work through a series of exercises designed to help you see what you’re actually looking at rather than simply drawing what you think a person should look like. No previous drawing experience is required.
