Description

Most of the college art portfolio requirements include live model drawings and paintings, which are difficult to arrange during regular portfolio prep classes (sessions have to be longer). Therefore, we offer this summer 4-hour long weekly workshop (5 sessions, 20 hours total) that helps fill this gap. Teachers closely monitor and guide students during these live model sessions. The portraits from the previous live model workshops were all used in our graduate students' college portfolios. Live sketches and detailed drawings of live models are produced at these workshop. Models wear open swimsuits.

Curriculum

Day 1. Overview of figure anatomy, basic bones and muscles. Sketches of hands and feet. Quick gesture sketches (1, 5, 10, 15 minutes).

Day 2. Charcoal drawing of a standing model with a contrast light.

Day 3. Starting a final project: pencil drawing or oil/acrylic painting of a sitting model. Compositional sketches, starting the project on paper / canvas.

Day 4. Working on shading/painting the model.

Day 5. Finishing the project.

Note: High-quality art materials and the model fee are included into the in-studio price.
