In this intense class we explore the structural aspect of the body and ways to depict the rhythms and forms inherent to our bodies. We develop a language of line that connects us to the earliest known and most sophisticated drawings made by humans.
Drawing is a way to examine, explore and express life. The human body provides simple, unifying form principles found in all visual arts and design.
In this intense class we explore the structural aspect of the body and ways to depict the rhythms and forms inherent to our bodies.
We develop a language of line that connects us to the earliest known and most sophisticated drawings made by humans. One goal is to have you on a knowledge-seeking path about drawing, seeing through the history of drawing and allowing for personal expression with meaning.
The series of exercises will enhance your drawing abilities no matter what your level. The pencil and brush will be the primary tools to make effective line drawings that show structural anatomy, rhythm and archetypes of form.
We work primarily from short poses with nude and clothed, male and female models. Each week, demonstrations of exercises, presentations and research deepen our understanding and our connection to the abundant drawings we can learn from, now at our fingertips more than ever.

Our kids classes are offered for children ages 5-12 who wish to develop and improve skills in sketching, drawing, and painting. Our artists travel through various techniques in our relaxing and creative studio.
This class serves as a bridge between our upper level Studio Art classes, Digital and our Anime & Comics courses, incorporating projects from both tracks to introduce students to many different styles of art, and help them find their strengths and interests.
In Introduction to Drawing at the AMUA, we will be utilizing the formal principles of design to learn how to draw. The first half of the semester, we will use only black, gray and white; and in the second, we will begin to use color.
The idea of this workshop is to give instruction on the process of painting Plein Air which is a French name for working in open air.
Designed for teen students who want to focus on mastering technical skills in the drawing medium. Students will explore the elements and principles of art and design through fun and engaging drawing projects.Â
