Figure Drawing For Beginners; A Simplified Approach
Welcome To Beginner Figure Drawing! The ultimate online course for complete beginners that aspire to draw the human figure. My name is Robert Joyner, and I’m a full-time artist from beautiful Virginia. I’ve been painting and teaching for over 15 years and I’m thrilled to bring this in-depth figure drawing course to you via Udemy. This class has been carefully constructed and includes a step-by-step approach that will build confidence without getting overwhelmed. If you can draw a circle, square and rectangle then you are more than qualified to take this course. This class illustrates the breakdown of body parts into shapes upon which the figure is built, and adding gesture to that structure to create a dynamic figure drawing. Robert presents this in easy to understand demonstrations that students are encouraged to draw along with. These techniques simplify the mechanism of figure drawing. Where to start drawing a figure and getting proportions right has always been difficult for me, but even midway through this class that apprehension is being replaced by a growing confidence. – Kat SchieberOVERVIEWSection One: Gesture & StructureThese arethe ultimate building block for your drawings. Gesture is used in a very unique way. Instead of using gesture to draw stick figures we will use it to locate and draw the lovey long-axis curves that make up major body parts. Each pose has several main gestures and you will quickly discover how to locate and draw them using one simple yet characteristic line. Structure is used to add volume and depth to each gesture. This makes the gestures more dynamic and three dimensional. You will learn how to sculpt each area of the body using basic forms and shapes. Section Two: Body PartsThis is a complete breakdown of the main body parts including the head, neck, ribcage, waist, pelvis, arms, shoulders, legs and feet. You will learn easy ideas for drawing each part using gesture & structure! Section Three: ProportionsYou will learn to develop a general model for understanding the front, back and profile views. Plus we will discuss some key similarities and differences between male and female bodies. Section Four: Final AssignmentHere you will put your knowledge and skills to the test. There is a practice reel that includes four poses, each one is six minutes long. To make it even better I will complete the same exact practice reel so you have something to compare your work to! As you can see this is the perfect lesson plan for beginners! It also includes: Master’s analysis – throughout the course we will look at some of the Master’s figure drawings, like Michelangelo, Raphael and more, to see how they used the ideas shared in this course in their work. Hours Of Demos – Each lecture is accompanied with a series of demonstrations where I will use images of models to draw the ideas for you. So, you will see how each main idea can be implemented in a variety of situations and poses. Thanks for taking the time to check out this course. I really hope to connect with you on the inside and become a part of your creative journey.”Amazing class, easy to follow along with plenty of example and demo to watch and learn from. It was a long course, I was intimidated by the length at first, but then I have managed to finish it in a week and complete the assessment. I feel that my figure drawing has improved so much.” – Carmela Pica
