Human figure drawing course, based on the figurative tradition of the great masters.

At the Barcelona Academy of Art we consider drawing to be the most important element and starting point of any artistic development. By drawing the human figure in pencil, students initially focus on developing a short sketch, practicing and applying their knowledge of fit, gesture, proportion, and precision. Using charcoal for long pose exercises or exercises of long duration, the student is introduced to working with different mediums, drawing with dots and a wide range of chiaroscuro tones, in an analytical and well-studied way.
