Figure Drawing: structured, fun lessons with Emma Theyers

The human figure is one of art’s greatest subjects. Life drawing and painting itself results in beautiful fine art and sketches. Figure drawing is the most powerful way to train your fundamental drawing skills, specifically values, gesture, form and observation. Figure drawing skills are critical to animation, story boarding and character design which are central to film, game and other design.

These drop in figure drawing sessions explore the human figure through both traditional and experimental approaches.

Participants will engage with observation, proportion, movement, and mark-making, using a range of materials and techniques. Each session encourages risk-taking, creative exploration, and personal expression, with references to both contemporary and historical artists serving as prompts to inspire experimentation and inform practice.
