![]() ![]() Tintoretto (1518 – 1594) - Gesture and action with basic anatomical masses, landmarks and limited convexed contours: Observing the dynamic forms evident within the work of the Venetian Master Tintoretto, we will introduce some very basic anatomical landmarks to better structure our drawing. ![]() Jacopo Pontormo (1494 – 1557) - Basic gesture and action in the human figure: Taking the Renaissance artist Pontormo as a guide, we will see how the figures weight is employed to express movement and action.We will integrate this knowledge with the exercises in geometry and perspective addressed in the previous classes. The human figure and the refinement of directional lines: Employing a life model, we will see how we can apply the lessons gained from the Bargue drawing to the life model in terms of basic directional lines.The Charles Bargue drawing course and the figure as directional lines: In this class, we will look at how a Nineteenth Century drawing course undertaken by Van Gogh, Seurat and Picasso can help us to better simplify the basic forms of the human figure.Drawing and linear direction: Starting with a stick figure - an invaluable tool in describing the major centre lines of any form - we will gradually work towards conceiving of more complex forms in terms of two directional lines and basic geometric shapes, such as cylinders and cubes.We will end by examining how more complex forms can be understood in terms of these basic shapes. Having observed these shapes, we will attempt to draw them in relation to perspectival space and the directional fall of light. Basic geometric shapes and perspective: We will start by drawing basic shapes, such as circles and squares followed by spheres, cubes and cylinders.Suitable for both the very beginner and those with some prior experience. The underlying assumption guiding these classes, is that absolutely anyone can learn to draw. In the space of eight weeks, we will summarise skills that can be repetitiously applied in a three to five year drawing course thus giving the beginner the necessary tools in a short time, to build on principles they can practice and repeat over a life time.
