Learning outcomes

- understand the structure of a living model
- knows drawing techniques for developing one's own expression

Implementation and methods of teaching

The course includes drawing a long pose or making fast-paced croquis from variable poses. When possible, the course will work with several models, which will allow the exercises to be done at different paces. A variety of drawing materials and tools will be used in the exercises, as also varying the size of the drawings. The course will include exercises in human proportions and the portrayal of man and form. Through the exercises, the aim is to develop personal expression in order to achieve personal artistic goals.

Students may work by drawing and painting and, where possible, by sculpting or other means of their choice. The model will be used as a tool for the realization of the work.
