Drawing the human figure with young artists

In Charlene Collins Freeman’s Tuesday afternoon class for 9 - 12 year old artists, they have been learning about the proportions of the human face and body.

First they used graphite pencil, a mannequin head and a drawing mannequin figure to learn about correct proportions.

After drawing faces and figures in graphite from mannequins, the young students were ready to create a color pencil drawing or acrylic painting from their imagination, using what they had learned from our proportion studies.

These are some of their final pieces. Well done all!
