Painting the Figure in Acrylic - Sara Madandar

This class is the combination of drawing and painting in Acrylic. In this course the students learn to use their hands to translate what the eye sees onto the drawing surface. Through the repeated physical activity of drawing and painting, students will refine their dexterity and intellectual powers of observation and visualization. Students will work primarily from observation in order to strengthen their perceptual abilities. Students will produce works on paper, all thoughtfully considered in both observation and technique. Students will develop technical skills expand their understanding and definition of drawing, and proactively learn from new artists whose works will introduce every other session. Upon successful completion of this course, students will: - Learn about Drawing and Acrylic paint essentials. - Understand accuracy of color relationships (line, scale, shape, volume, value, texture, etc.) - Learning about values and linear perspectives in figures.
