In this series, figure drawing instructor, Karl Gnass, will show you how to draw an entire figure through his five crucial stages: Gesture, Formulation, Anatomy, Light and Tone, and Aesthetics. In this fourth lesson of the series, Karl will share with you the next step: anatomy. Karl will give you his take on “active anatomy” and how you can use it to help describe the gesture in your figure drawings and as a result, tell a better “story.” Karl will begin with a thorough lecture on Anatomy, followed by a series of figure drawing demonstrations. Next, Karl will analyze Old Master works, and then give you a timed figure drawing assignment. The lesson will conclude with Karl’s approach to the same assignment, allowing you to compare your work with his.
