In this beginning figure drawing course, you’ll learn the exciting art of gesture drawing. Gesture drawing is one of the most important, but least understood parts of the figure drawing process, but Instructor Brent Eviston will guide you through the figure drawing process with the same award-winning instruction and hands on projects that have made his other drawing courses bestsellers.
This course brings the figure drawing studio to you by providing master instruction and timed practice poses for you to draw from. Once enrolled you’ll learn from numerous anatomical diagrams, detailed drawing demonstrations and hundreds of photographs of a fully nude model.
This course contains 12 lessons, each filled with essential figure drawing techniques. Each lesson contains at least one practice reel with times poses specifically chosen so you can get the most out of the lesson they accompany.
By the end of this course you’ll be able to do gesture drawings that stand alone as works of art as well as lay the foundation for more detailed figure drawings.
***Because this course features photographs of a fully nude model, it is important that you conduct yourself maturely and appropriately in the course.***

Although this is a beginning figure drawing course, it is not a beginning drawing course. Some basic drawing skills are recommended.

Volumetric drawing is an essential figure drawing skill that brings a dramatic sense of 3-Dimensionality to drawings. It does this by emphasizing the fundamental volumes of the figure. This technique has been relied upon for centuries and is still used by master artists and creative professionals today.
In this course we’ll be using a vocabulary of basic volumes: the sphere, the cylinder, and the cube. If you’re enrolled in this course you should already be comfortable drawing these volumes at various proportions and various orientations in space. We’ll be combining these basic volumes to create the more complex forms of the figure.
In this course we’re going to focus primary on geometric drawings of the figure. These geometric drawings are a powerful tool that will ensure that you see and draw the figure as a dynamic 3-dimensional object moving through space. Once you’ve learned how to draw the body geometrically, you’ll learn how to incorporate a dramatic sense of volume into realistic drawings by using dynamic mark making and descriptive contours.
To help you understand the volumes of the body, this course includes some unique projects. You’ll be led step by step through the process of creating anatomical models of some of the more challenging volumes of the body including the head and the rib cage. You can use these models as drawing and anatomical aids so you always have help understanding how these forms of the body operate in perspective.
This course includes numerous timed practice poses as well as downloadable still images of fully nude figure drawing models.
***Because this course features photographs of a fully nude model, it is important that you conduct yourself maturely and appropriately in the course.***
This is an intermediate figure drawing course. Figure Drawing is rewarding, but challenging. Although I would recommend completing all courses in the Art & Science of Drawing series before taking figure drawing, here are the top classes I highly recommend completing to make sure you've got the skills necessary to have a great figure drawing experience.
FORM & SPACE / 3D Drawing & Perspective
MEASURING & PROPORTION / Drawing with Accuracy & Precision
CONTOURS / Drawing with Compelling Contours & Foreshortening:
GESTURE / An Introduction to the Art of Figure Drawing
VOLUME & STRUCTURE / Learn the Art of Dynamic, 3D Figure Drawing
SHADING / Learn to Draw the Figure in Dramatic Light & Shadow

Shading is the most sought after figure drawing skill. If you can shade basic volumes like spheres and cylinders, this course will teach you how to use those same skills to shade the human body. You’ll be led step by step through the figure shading process from simple light and shadow patterns to highly rendered anatomical details.
In addition to Brent’s award winning instruction this course includes a set of 50 photographs of beautifully lit, fully nude figure models. These photographs were created specifically for this course and will provide hours of shading practice.
Each lesson in this course focuses on a specific step of the shading process. At the end of each lesson you’ll be given a specific exercise. By the end of the course you’ll have your own fully shaded and rendered figure drawing.
Because this course features photographs of fully nude models, it is important that you conduct yourself maturely and appropriately in the course.
This is a challenging figure drawing course. It is highly recommended that you complete my GESTURE / An Introduction to the Art of Figure Drawing course as well as VOLUME & STRUCTURE / Learn the Art of Dynamic, 3D Figure Drawing before taking this course.

In this course you’ll be introduced to three different kinds of gesture drawing: straight line studies, elliptical modeling and dynamic exaggeration. Each kind of gesture drawing will challenge you to experience the figure in new and unique ways that will ultimately improve your figure drawing overall.
Straight Line Studies will reveal the dynamism and structure at the root of poses. Elliptical Modeling is a new way to conceive of volumes that go beyond contours to describe form. Dynamic Exaggerations will teach you how to dramatize the figure. Exaggeration issued by both historic artists as well as animators and comic book illustrators of the present.

It is highly recommended that before taking this course, you take Brent’s first gesture drawing course: Gesture / An Introduction to the Art of Figure Drawing.
If you’re completely new to drawing, we recommend taking Basic Skills, the first course in The Art & Science of Drawing series.

In this course you’ll be introduced to a series of measuring tools and strategies that will take the guesswork out of the figure drawing process. You'll learn how to determine the proportions of any pose and draw them accurately on the page. You’ll also learn how to use angle sighting to triangulate the location of any conceivable point on the figure.
This course is perfect for artists of any medium looking to improve the accuracy of their figure drawings.
This course builds upon the tools and techniques taught in Brent’s Measuring & Proportion course in the original Art & Science of Drawing series. This course is part of The Art & Science of Figure Drawing series. It is recommended that you have taken Gesture, the first course in the series before taking this course. It is highly recommended you have completed both the Measuring & Proportion and the Gesture courses before taking this course.
For the techniques taught in this course to be truly useful you need to incorporate them into your overall drawing process. Brent highly recommends using the practice reels in the Gesture course and the Volume & Structure course to incorporate these measuring and proportion techniques into your overall figure drawing process. Drawing from these timed practice reels is an excellent way to speed up your measuring process. This combination of accuracy and efficiency will bring your figure drawing to a whole new level.
