January has come to a close, and students have charged full throttle into figure drawing, figurative comics and figurative sculptures. After working with gesture drawing and futurist action drawings, Art 1 students are starting to compose their formal figure drawings this week. Its all about proportion, capturing accurate positioning, and adding shading to bring the lines to life. The results will be posted once complete. Basic Design students have been working hard on their comic creations. They have established individual plot lines with opposing protagonist and antagonist characters. Their illustrations are really starting to come to life in full color. Sculpture students have been working with figurative sculpture and exploring unconventional materials through the process. I am always amazed with where the students take the lesson ideas I present them. So many unique perspectives can spring out of one traditional art making idea. Its exciting to see their creativity evolve.
