Learn the basics of drawing the human figure in this workshop with a live model! This workshop will cover basic proportion principles and how to accurately “measure” proportions for your drawing! This workshop is recommended for students with some experience drawing from observation and will teach mark making skills applicable to seasoned artists as well! Clothed live models are interesting to draw because you can not only hone your skills for the human figure but also clothing which has folds and texture. Graphite and charcoal drawing tools will be explored.

Instructor: Ashleigh McCann

Ashleigh McCann primarily creates abstract and nonrepresentational artwork, and she believes that practice rendering landscapes, the human figure, and still life enhances every form of artmaking. McCann emphasizes that developing a vocabulary of engaging mark-making and color theory elevates her student’s representational artwork. McCann completed a 9-month residency at the Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art in 2017 and received her BFA in Drawing & Painting from BYU-Idaho in 2016. You can view her website at www.ashmccann.com.
