Life Drawing with Zarahn Southon
Observation of the human form has always traditionally been at the forefront of an artist’s training. The challenge and fascination of drawing the figure from life is just as relevant and important today.
This life drawing course introduces and reinforces an understanding of the fundamental components and subtleties of the human body and leads to the translation of form through line, an understanding of mass and tonal relationships, of structure, proportion, and space.
Developments are encouraged in interpretation and individual expression through visual investigation and invention.
The model’s fee is included in the course fee.
NB: Please remember to bring materials from the course "materials list" online.
