If you are tired of getting lost in the details and traditional modes of representational painting and want to take a risk by exploring new ways of expressing the human figure, this workshop is perfect for you. Learn to paint the human form in a looser, more expressionistic manner.  Examples of the figure's applications in modern and contemporary art will be provided to enhance your understanding of the abstract qualities of form, line and color. Class time will be weighted generously toward open painting, with critiques and advice from the instructor as he works one-on-one with each student toward their individual goals. Open to all levels of figure drawing/painting experience, but students should have experience with using their materials of choice and the ability to begin work from their own ideas or subject matter as a starting point. Note: This course does not use models.
