Abstraction in Figure Drawing

Main Building • 5256 Magazine Street New OrleansLA  70115 Organized by New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts

About this event

The Abstraction in Figure Drawing course has two primary objectives: Firstly the students will learn/review about the techniques and tools appropriated in Beginning (contour, sighting, vertical and horizontal alignments, one- and two-point perspective, etc.). Secondly the course focuses on the Figurative Abstraction style as a practice to approach the space in the drawing. This course is designed for both basic and intermediate level. The students will be introduced to pencil, charcoal and ink during the course. MEASURABLE OUTCOMES: Upon successful completion of this course, students will: - Learn about abstraction in figure. - Understand accuracy of drawn relationships (line, scale, shape, volume, value, texture, etc.) - Learning about values and linear perspectives in figure. - Learn to prioritize and utilize different ways of drawing for personal outcomes / effects. Introduce artists: Since learning to draw requires learning how to see, looking at accomplished artists’ renderings throughout history is an important discipline to maintain. In the beginning of every practice, I will give a short presentation about the practice of the day and introduce some new artists related to the class practice.
