Figure Drawing: An Essential Guide
(sponsored post)
Capture the human form with realistic and expressive energy in this FREE class! Renowned artist Patricia Watwood leads you through the simple steps to create a striking figure study.
Master figure drawing as you learn classical techniques for rendering from live models! With Watwood’s guidance, you’ll progress from a simple block-in sketch to a gestural drawing to a polished piece with depth and dimension. Learn how to set up and light a live model, and how to use graphite pencil and simple angles to create an accurate outline for any figure. Add life-like energy as you incorporate gestural lines, then carve out the form with hatching, shading and highlighting techniques. As a bonus, Watwood will show you how to create custom toned papers to add a unique touch to your work.

STATEMENT
Ann-Marie Cheung is inspired by the natural world, mythology and dreams. Â Many of her paintings are whimsical, colourful and playful. She mainly creates using acrylic paint but also explores mixed media, ink, encaustic and glass.
Early in her artistic career, her work was full of angst and suffering, and was expressed with acrylics on large canvasses. Images explored women’s position in society and dealt with concepts of censorship and freedom. The “blue†goddess was present in much of her work.
Her recent body of work “The Healing Garden†explores spirituality and the process of art as a healing tool. These present creations investigate colour and texture, and combine ancient symbols and mythologies to create something mystical, joyful and primitive.
Ann-Marie graduated from the Ontario College of Art in 1984 from the general studies program and in 2012 obtained The Royal Conservatory, Learning Through the Arts® (LTTA) Artist-Educator Foundations Course Certificate. She has had numerous exhibits across Canada and has work in private and public collections around the world.
