Advanced Figure Drawing for Adults
Ages 17+, Intermediate to Advanced
Mondays: April 20 - May 18, 2026
6 - 9 PM
Instructor: Jeff De Lierre
This advanced 5-week master class is for students with a solid foundation in figure drawing who are ready to refine and elevate their skills. Working exclusively in conté charcoal on 18 × 24 newsprint, students will focus on full-figure drawings built on strong gesture, accurate proportion, confident anatomy, and thoughtful composition. Instruction emphasizes both technical precision and intentional decision-making, with individualized critique using tracing paper overlays to demonstrate specific improvements.
The first three weeks focus on photo reference to strengthen structure and design, followed by two weeks of live model work to apply these skills in real time. By the end of the course, students will leave with a cohesive body of large-format drawings, a more disciplined process, and greater confidence in their figure work.
