2-Week Figure Workshop

Aug. 4th – 15th Monday-Friday, 9am-4pm

Charcoal into Grisaille (week 1), Form Painting Within the Figure (week 2)
 
Instructors: Stephen Early and Darren Kingsley (teaching alternate days)
 
Students can attend 1 or both weeks.

In the first week, students will start with fast, gestural figure sketches using a block-in approach to establish structure and anatomy, gradually refining their drawings before introducing paint. The process will emphasize loose, expressive marks and strong foundational elements, transitioning to grisaille block-ins that incorporate both gesture and structure. In the second week, students will focus on translating three-dimensional form onto canvas, prioritizing value control, proportion, anatomy, and paint handling—using either a limited color palette or traditional black and white grisaille to model form effectively.
