Life Drawing and Life Painting course

The nude in Art

This course deals with visual understanding by direct observation of the human body and it includes the acquisition of basic notions of anatomy as well as the methodology used to draw bodies and faces.

Students will practice with the main drawing tools, i.e. graphite, charcoal, sanguine, pen-and-ink, pastel crayon. No specific artistic skills or background are required.

This figure drawing course includes 12 hours of live model instruction each week.
Each session will last two to three hours, with students drawing from either a male or female nude model.
The remaining two hours of each week are dedicated to preparation, discussion, and conclusion of the lesson (approximately 30-60 minutes each day, though the exact duration may vary depending on the length of the drawing session).

Quick poses will aim at teaching the sketch technique while longer poses will intend to develop the study of anatomy and of shades as well as the student’s observation abilities.

Please note:

• classes are held both in Italian or English;
• in order to insure the highest quality of tuition, the number of students will not exceed 8 per group.
