Every quarter I teach figure drawing on Sundays. No class is ever the same, which means that every artist gets to experience different ways to approach the figure. Each comes with a specific challenge that teaches a skill, and I hold the artists to that challenge, but individual styles are celebrated, as you’ll see in this collection.
Most of the drawings below were made by artists who are new to figure drawing, and all were made with the collaboration of live models online. Impressive work!
Drawings by: Carol Jackson, Emma Howard, Emma Nadolny, Pam Carraway, Grace VanNoy, Joe White, Hilary Wething, Emily Howatt, James Pedersen, Rita Parks, Teri Howatt, Suchin Gururangan, Linda Mendez, Georgia Ward-Collings, Emily Johnson, Lyall Wallerstedt, Karl Dyer, Sheryl Feldman, Jade Chowning, Jeanne Chowning, Karen Guo, Holly Gleser.
