Course Credit:  3

The human figure occupies various positions on the spectrum between the analytically anatomical to the purely poetic. This course will explore the expressive and descriptive potential of the human form in the individual’s art. Sighting methods for accuracy will be introduced along with strategies employing intentional distortion and simplification to amplify expressive potential. Correct as well as convincing placement of the figure in the environment will be covered.
