GESTURE AND EMOTION IN CONTEMPORARY FIGURATIVE PAINTING

This class is for artists who want to show in art galleries and who work primarily in traditional media. The human form evokes a direct and powerful response in the viewer. In this mentorship students will learn how to depict specific body language for the purposes of personal expression. Using visual storytelling methods developed in illustration Rebecca helps students understand their own relationship to the figure and its communicative capacity. At the end of the semester the owners of Haven gallery will provide feedback on student work.
​

​After taking this class students will also receive a free profile on the Alumni Portfolios page.
