Beginning Figure Drawing Wet & Dry: Self Portrait Dissection in Layers
For this project students start by photographing their entire figure in a strategic pose. Using this photo as a reference, students create a base layer drawing on 22" x 30" drawing paper. After this initial portrait is constructed students create skeletal overlays of the self portrait on frosted mylar over the portrait. Students then add additional imagery to communicate autobiographical information to the viewer. All layers can be done in any grayscale media.

For this project students communicate narrative content through the depiction of two or more figures in an artwork.
Beginning Figure Drawing Wet & Dry: Self-Directed Final Projects
Students create a self-directed series of artworks as a final project. Students are challenged to create artworks that are thematically and visually cohesive while incorporating the figure in less expected ways.

Advanced Figure Drawing Wet & Dry: Self-Selected Thematic Body of Work
Figure Drawing students working at the advanced level complete a series of 5 or more cohesive artworks that feature the human figure as the primary subject matter. For these self directed projects students consider how material choices, format, and display of artworks supports conceptual communication of their ideas and build a body of cohesive artworks.
