Taught by a sculptor, this course addresses the construction of the human figure. Students will analyze the skeletal and muscular structure of the human body by drawing and sculpting human anatomy. Students will work from the skeleton, scull, head and figure ecorche. Live models will also be used in order to compare and analyze the application of anatomical laws to the individual figure.

In addition to learning the bones, muscles and muscle groups, students will learn to accurately observe their proportions, exact placement and turning, caused by the static or dynamic pose of the figure. Students will acquire anatomical literacy, so that their own artwork displays anatomical sensitivity.
