Figure drawing with short poses

This figure drawing class is perfect if you want to improve the dynamics and gesture of your figures. Each week, you will draw short poses from a different model, focusing on precise and, above all, simplified sketching of the figure’s movement.

The instructor will provide demonstrations and corrections on transparent paper. They will be available for questions throughout the entire class to support you with your individual challenges.

Prerequisites for this class

For this drawing class, you should be able to draw a figure independently. Not perfectly, but with confident and minimal lines. If you have never drawn figures or want to strengthen your fundamentals, we recommend our Figure Drawing Fundamentals class.

Drawing Materials

For this drawing class, we recommend using charcoal pencils on newsprint paper. Alternatively, you can also use pencils and other smooth paper, at least in A3 size. You can find recommendations for drawing materials in our material lists.

Group instructions will be in German. And your personal feedback in English.

All content from the focus classes is also part of the atelier course, which allows you to join at any time. So you don’t have to wait for a new class date if none is currently announced.
The classes are designed as a boost to intensively learn a specific skill in a group.
