Most of the studies documented on this blog are very short and direct. But for people who are interested in investigating doing longer figure drawings of their own, I will be teaching a workshop from 9 a.m to 4 p.m daily May 16 -20 over at the TSA. It's called "Bodies in Context". Each day features a different model, set up in a tableau with props and backdrop elements, to explore narrative and symbolic situations. Good figure drawing practice, lots of time for one-on-one feedback and coaching, and an excellent opportunity to consider content - and the meaning of figures - within your work.
There are a couple of places left, and for details, check in at the TSA's
website.
These longer poses finished the evening. The top two are 15-minute studies, while the bottom two are 20 minutes each. The topmost one is charcoal on 18 x 24" cartridge paper, and the others are all charcoal on 18 x 24" sheets of different types of Japanese paper.
come to New York and teach!
