Oh, the ever beautiful human figure! We started this project by studying the figure in art throughout history dating all the way back to prehistoric cave paintings. Next, I taught them the proportions of the figure and face. Then it was time to put it into practice and start drawing! Kaitlin The students did timed gesture drawings from life to start. They had to break the figure down into basic shapes. The students then picked an image of a figure to draw for their final. See some of the sketches below. For their final drawings, the students were to draw the full figure as accurately as possible on a large format (18" x 24"). They had to shade the figure while keeping contrast in mind. They also had to keep their drawings balanced in order to create a successful composition. The students started with the basic shapes and then added the contour, shading, and details.
