COURSE DESCRIPTION

ART 202 — Figure Drawing  (3 cr)

Working from a live model, the student explores a range of drawing approaches including gestural drawings, sustained renderings, structural drawings and expressive treatment of the figure. Exercises are performed which emphasize anatomical structure and focus on fragments, such as hand studies and portraiture. The development of a personal approach to drawing the figure and an examination of how the figure can be handled in art is explored through such means as critiques, slide presentations and demonstrations. May be repeated for a total of 18 credits. (SFCC)
