Weekend Workshop: The Drawing Room

The Simplified Figure with sculptor Javier Murcia

An intense class to have the opportunity to work alongside Javier, and see his methodology and philosophy of work. The end goal is to provide strong foundations to lead students towards creating the confidence they need to make their own work.  Javier Murcia has more than 20 years of experience in the art and the entertainment industry. Trained as a figurative sculptor, with a particular interest in anatomy, he has developed a style that plays with the form and the drama in the intention of capturing the soul on his work.

Using an example of a figure as a reference, Javier will explain how to break the body into simple geometrical parts, in an easy way to understand the core structure of the figure- creating a figure that holds its weight and plays with the balance against gravity.

Learn proportions and anatomy without going too deep- just enough to read through the surface of the skin.
