Long Pose Figure Drawing & Painting Workshop by Lucas Bononi

In this figure drawing & painting workshop, participants will learn how to work with the figure using academic three-dimensional concepts. Form in art is a traditional concept invented prior to Monet’s “Painting Light” where the painter or draftsman sculpts volume as it relates to the light source, rather than optically. This figure workshop will cover the properties of form rendering, physics of light, optics, composition and how to express them in a loose stylistic manner. With an emphasis on personal voice and style, contemporary experimentation will be encouraged and guided through the various academic concepts as a structural element to this approach. As a result of this workshop student’s will have the focus of “being on the form” for truthful volume in their drawing or painting, while gaining a better understanding as to what is it, they want to say with their art.
