Simplied Figure
As a reference, we are using a simplied figure to explain to the students how to break down the body into simple geometrical parts. This makes it easy to understand the volume of these different parts and the core structure of the figure; so that it holds its weight and plays with the balance against gravity. We learn proportions and anatomy without going too deep, just enough to read through the surface of the skin and get an understanding of the human figure.
Duration: 2 to 3 days.
Max. students: 10

Figure & Écorché
Female figure
Course starts November 8th and runs through to February 21st.
Sunday Classes from 2pm-7pm.
Held at the Wellington school of drawing.
Max. students: 10
Booked out. Already started.
This course is for artists from different disciplines, who are looking for a better understanding of human anatomy. We will build a 1: 3 scale figure in plasticine ( 750mm high ) from a model posing during the course. From this figure, we will study anatomy on one side removing the skin and reviewing the complexity of the muscles and bones lying underneath. Javier will be doing a demo with the students so you can do your work following the steps. This course is practical and it dives quite deep in the theory.
Max. STUDENTS: 10
DURATION: 60 hours. Held on Sundays from 1pm to 7pm for 1 term.
Material included.
