FNDP 102 - Sketching the Human Figure


This course provides individuals who are not majoring in visual arts with an introduction to some of the materials, strategies, and methods useful when drawing the human figure. No prior experience or portfolio of work is required. The course uses the figure as subject. Analytical and responsive approaches are compared and a range of materials are used. The figure, its volume and structure, and immediate spatial environment are studied, and the ability to capture the gesture, appropriate scale, proportion, and mass of the figure are stressed. Homework assignments apply principles learned in class. Formerly FP 102
