Figure Drawing & Dynamic Character Posing with Garth

from $500.00
Version:

Join us in this revised version of our Figure Drawing & Anatomy class to include demonstrations on applying what you learn from life drawing to your character designs. In this new course, we’ll be studying from human anatomy directly, but we’ll also talk about exaggeration and translating a realistic drawing style to varying levels of stylization, making it all the more relevant for applying to the medium of animation.

This course is a hybrid format, allowing for both interactive experiences directly with the instructor, as well as time to work on assignments on your own. There will be demonstrations, feedback, and a private Group Discord to share your work and discuss the assignments, share resources, and grow together between classes.

Details

  • 8 weeks in total duration: 4 live 2.5 hour sessions, 4 homework submission times with video recorded artwork reviews by the instructor.

  • Traditional materials encouraged — Life drawing pad + board OR large sketchbook. We encourage a variety of drawing materials for the stylization portion of this class, but conté (compressed charcoal) is encouraged for the life drawing component

  • We estimate between 4-12 hours of homework per week, depending on availability and your desire for depth in the learning.

  • Course start date: Tuesdays beginning March 24th 2026

  • Additional perks: All of our students receive 20% off of:
    -TVPaint Animation Software
    -60% off Patata School 3D Animation Courses
