Composition and Form through Degas: Anatomy

Composition and Form through Degas: Anatomy
DATE:
TIME:
6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Teacher:
Melissa Manfull

Join artist Melissa Manfull for a six-session drawing class exploring Degas’s approach to composition and form. Students examine Degas’s many artworks and create their own drawings using experimental techniques and drawing from a live model in one session.

Students learn how Degas explored anatomy in his drawings and sculpture. Drawing from a live clothed model, they practice emphasizing the proportions of the body. Students also examine how Degas expressed movement in a still image and create drawings using vine charcoal and charcoal pencils.
