Anatomy for Artists: Head, Neck, Hands & Feet *In-Person*
Drawing, sculpting or painting the head and neck, hands and feet can be an exercise in frustration when what exists under the skin remains a mystery. We will examine and learn about the muscles, bones and soft tissue of these three areas, using a skeleton, anatomy references and my own reference drawings. Then we will apply that knowledge to drawing from live figure models. My approach to drawing these areas incorporates demos and exercises to create more dynamic and dimensional drawings, including the study of proportion and key anatomic landmarks. Although previous figure drawing experience is helpful, participants of all levels are welcome. Instructor: Mark Lefkowitz
