Arts Academy - teens kicking butt

I took on an additional class teaching teens on Saturdays at ACAD. I created a very academic curriculum. These guys are quickly becoming really good. I wasn't able to snap many photos of the terrific work they did in the still life proportions class.

My phone is old and the battery never gets me past 3pm before it dies. there were more than a dozen more great still life studies by the end of class, but you get the idea.

Go figure!!!

I teach figure drawing at ACAD. This week my lectures and demos centered around  proportion, proper measuring methods as well looking at idealized references like Hale and Loomis. These are some of the drawings at the end of class.

If you are interested in learning how to figure draw better, I will be opening up figure drawing sessions and long poses at my Atelier. It is instructed and It's a great opportunity to put in the necessary time and practice to get good it'll be cheap!

This is still life

In my ACAD Drawing 1 class I taught an academic and systematic approach to plotting out the proportions for a still life, here is some of their work in process.

Pretty nice, eh?!
