Description

Life drawing is an ancient and powerful exercise in increasing our ability to perceive and communicate form. The course provides an opportunity for students to represent and explore the human body, examine concepts of form, structure, skin and cladding and the body's relationship to physical and virtual space. Students will explore digital methods of sculpting the human figure using quick computer modelling techniques as well as the more traditional techniques of drawing the clothed, partially clothed and unclothed human figure.

The course involves group based drawing and computer lab sessions, and independent work. It is open to Faculty students who have successfully completed Year 2 of their program, enjoy drawing from life models, can work and learn independently and who enjoy working with others in the setting of the Studio and Lab.
