Workshop Description 

Artist, Zin Lim's Expressive Figure Drawing workshop will be a memorable and inspiring course. Coming all the way from South Korea, he will be instructing us on how to measure, create accurate proportions and refine fine details effectively. You will learn how to create good drawings that have emotion, rhythm, movement, and with your personal touch.

The instructor will share his unique direction of expressive figure drawing in lectures, presentations, and multiple demos from a live model. You will experiment to find a way to use your inner voice and the rhythm of your body and make lots of short and long posed drawings.

This course is for any experienced level of artist students.

Beginners will learn how to use charcoal medium, how to make interesting visual marks, and how to use those marks to create good figure drawings without being full of anatomic detail.

Advanced artists will learn to break their safe zone and shift their drawing style from tight to loose.

After attending this course you will broaden your perspective of figure drawing approaches, enjoy creating process more and get an idea for your own direction for the next drawing art.
