Materials for this program

By Amy Dapice

This workshop breaks down learning to depict the figure into manageable pieces in a way that enables students to quickly create dynamic, powerful images without anatomical bells and whistles. Shapes, texture, gesture, and composition come together to express the human form in all its glory.

Students immerse in a step-by-step process of drawing, painting, and collage, resulting in works that celebrate self-expression as well as believable figures in an environment. The minimalist approach to anatomy frees students to compose artworks that represent their creative vision.
