Explore the art of Human Figure Drawing and Painting with our Saturday course at the Barcelona Academy of Art. Led by experienced instructors, this course focuses on mastering the essential techniques needed to capture the human form.

Beginning with pencil and advancing to charcoal, students learn to create lifelike representations of the figure, starting with basic sketches and progressing to more detailed drawings. The Long Pose exercise lasts for 11 weeks with the same model in the same position, which allows students to study and understand the nuances of anatomy, structure, proportion, and gesture in depth.

It's important to note that the progression to painting is not automatic in one term or more and it's entirely guided by the instructor. Typically, students in our full-time program transition to painting after at least one year of intensive drawing study. Part-time students may require additional time to reach the moment they can start painting.
