Class description: Hands hard to draw? Feet flummox you? Proportional perspective puzzling? Then Anatomy 101 is the workshop for you. Learn
constructive ways to dissect anatomical issues in your illustrations and build believability into your characters.

Objectives: Working from the inside out, we will tackle some of the most commonly made anatomical mistakes, ascertain how to avoid them, and most importantly, learn the means to construct characters correctly in any pose. By learning more about construction and movement, this
hands-on workshop will help illustrators become more confident in drawing believable human and animal forms.

Workshop Schedule
8:30-9:00 a.m. - Get situated, have a cup of coffee, and meet the other workshop participants.
9:00-11:30 a.m.- Getting down to business. Instruction in basic elements.
11:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m.: Brown bag lunch.
12:00 -2:00 p.m.: Solving the problems of drawing specific anatomical poses using your own work. (See pre-workshop assignment below.)

Pre-Workshop Assignment: Choose a piece of your artwork(anything from a finished piece to a rough sketch) that has posed a difficult anatomical
problem for you. Bring it with you to the workshop.

Pencils and erasers.
Tracing paper.
A sketchbook.
