In week one, you will learn the basics of gesture and structure; these two elements are the fundamentals of figure drawing. Instructor Steve Huston will demystify the relationship between the two by showing you how they work hand in hand to make a solid yet fluid drawing.
Throughout this course, you’ll have access to the NMA community for feedback and critiques to improve your work as you progress.
