WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
In this class students will draw the Figure from observation in graphite. We will spend three days understanding and practicing the visual tools of blocking-in. Each student will get a chance to organize a strategic method of thought and process to develop a clear approach to Drawing. The first day students will work with drawing from the Charles Bargue Drawing Course Figure Plates giving them a chance to work from a 2-dimensional reference to grasp the approach.
Then we will spend the next two days working from the live model. Students will develop their comparative measuring and shape-seeing abilities along with patience, focus, accuracy, and observational detail. Students can expect to walk away with a good grasp of a systematical approach and multiple practice drawings. Instructor will give demos through out the workshop and will advise each student one on one. Spending time and focusing on block-ins is a traditional academic training method that allows one to fine tune foundational skills for high accuracy.
Beginner and experienced students are welcome.

I’m a Portrait Painter and genre-painter and sculptor in a naturalistic and realistic style. My inspiration is the character and individuality of my models and subjects. I enjoy working from life. I feel it’s the best way to see the intricacies of the subject's form but also a great way to interact and be inspired by the personality of the life in front of me. Painting is a way of reading the world and getting lost in observing it, but it’s also an interaction, an understanding, and a relationship. Every individual has something that is unique. I'm fascinated to learn each particular person's character, traits, thoughts, and quirks. And no matter how different we are as individuals, there is an underlying element of commonality. We can all relate to art that reveals someone's contained emotions and inner thoughts, that triggers a glimpse into humanity. There is no greater beauty and truth than Nature itself, and I believe that nothing can be made up that is as powerful, grand, or intriguing.
