Instructor Ian Naud demonstrates in class.
Today we launched our inaugural session of our new workshop "Painting the Figure in Photoshop", a kind of digital counterpart to our figure drawing and painting classes. Students came equipped with their own laptop, software and pen tablet, while we provided a model (Thanks, Nicole!). Ian then took charge, taking us straight to the intersection of figurative art and computer geekdom!
David was on cloud nine. "I haven't had this much fun working on a computer since I was a kid playing with Koala Painter on my friend's Commodore 64... Wait, that makes me sound old, doesn't it?"
Part 2 is next week, and after that the fun continues with "Sculpting the Figure in ZBrush" on February 20th & 27th. This might have to be a regular thing!
About last night...

David's demo from portrait drawing class.
Kim's our new favorite portrait model. Here's David's demonstration from portrait drawing class last night, emphasizing the basic structure of the face and features.
"Drawing Board" is a window on the day-to-day activities in the studio. Every few days we'll post work by instructors, class demonstrations, photos of classes in session and anything else that strikes our fancy to document what Vitruvian is all about.
