Aesthetic Anatomy
Instructor: Roberto Osti
March 1-2 (Sat.-Sun.)
9am – 4pm
Tuition: $399
This two day Figure Drawing workshop is dedicated to draw the male and female figure from life in standing, sitting and foreshortened poses, focusing on the aesthetic and anatomical structure of the human body. My approach stems from the method devised during the Italian Renaissance that revolutionized the way the human figure was painted or drawn and has been continuously developed and tweaked since. Known as the Florentine Structural System, It is still one of the main approaches to depict the human figure, harmoniously blending anatomical, aesthetic and expressive aspects of the human body.
Each of the two days of this workshop will start with one hour demo where I will introduce and demonstrate the essential aspect of this holistic method, followed by a 2-hour drawing session in the morning and a 3-hour drawing session in the afternoon, giving the students ample time to practice drawing the figure in a variety of poses and from different angles, using a variety of media: graphite, charcoal and chalk on white and toned paper.
Focusing on the structural aspect of the figure first and then build the external forms over it, permits us to capture the figure relatively quickly and correctly, draw gestural and expressive figure drawings or develop a tonal drawing thoroughly over an extended pose.
Open to all levels.
