Overview
  • Welcome to my class, "Figure Drawing - Starting with Basic Forms!"

    In this class you will learn how to break down the process of drawing the body with primitive shapes and forms.  This is also known as Stereometric Drawing.  This process allows us to simplify the human body and keep a firm understanding of perspective and volume in mind.  It also helps us to keep our proportions in check.

    Drawing the human body can be a complex and sometimes confusing task.  Practice this technique often and you will find it to be a great asset within your skillset.

    Good luck with this class.  Next we will cover more on gesture drawing and anatomy breakdowns.  I hope you will join me for those as well!

    Thank you and good luck with your art!
