This class is a one-time figure drawing class, with 5 models recent graduates from our Intro To Figure Modeling class here at Ulna.
Students will have the opportunity to draw multiple models during our 3 hour class. Time will include both drawing from life and reflecting on the practice. Lettie Jane’s instructions emphasize gesture, relaxed and confident line making, and working with highlights and shadow to create form. Students will be encouraged to find their own expression and style of capturing the figure. We will begin the class with quick, gestural poses and work our way slowly into longer poses.
Students should provide their own materials for this course. If you want to use the classroom materials you can for a small fee of $5 due at class time.
All model fees are covered by the cost of the course.
