Class Description

Description

This intensive drawing course is designed for students who wish to develop their observational abilities through focused study of the human face and figure. Working from live models in extended poses gives you the time necessary to experiment with varied drawing techniques and explore different media at your own pace.

Each weekly session concentrates on a specific topic that advances your skills. Over the course duration, you will study structural anatomy and form, spatial composition, and the effective use of negative space, achieving convincing likeness, and other foundational drawing principles. The instructor will discuss diverse drawing styles from art history and examine how historical approaches continue to influence contemporary drawing practices.

This course welcomes participants of all skill levels, including those with no prior drawing experience. Beginner-level students will receive the support needed to build confidence and fundamental skills.

School Notes:

Please note, New York School of the Arts charges a $50 one-time registration fee for students who are new to their school. This is automatically added to the cost of your enrollment (and already included in the price listed on this course). If you are a returning student to NYSA, please let us know and we will refund you $50.
