Expressionism and the Figure

Expressionism and the Figure

This workshop explores the human figure as an aesthetic design, as a symbol, or as feeling.

Drawing with the model, the artists may examine mother-shapes, blocking, plasticity, distortions, tensions, rhythms and lyrical techniques to see how they inspire fresh ideas and evoke intense viewers’ reaction. Open for intermediate level. The class time would be open season for free sketching and studies, all in personal and atelier mode.  Experiments, inventiveness and questions are the overall theme.

This workshop will be using live models (male and female) for four of the five days. A modeling fee will be collected from students once the workshop has been confirmed to be running.
