Hide-Module Title: Life Drawing (Advanced).
Overview
Lecturer: Holly Walsh
This course is intended for artists and students who already have basic drawing skills and for those who wish to reconnect with their own studio practice. It is also suitable for anyone who is interested in transitioning from other art practices and professions.
The course will encourage participants to engage with the process of drawing and expand their drawing skills by experimenting with different drawing techniques and exploring various drawing media in a contemporary way. Concentrating on observational drawing, with a focus on the figure and life drawing, this course aims to encourage the development of the participant’s own visual language and drawing abilities, as well as challenging them to make improvements and experiments. Traditionally in European culture studying the figure was core to drawing education and it has been taught at the Crawford College for over 100 years.
Uniquely, it continues to be an integral part of the Drawing curriculum. Many life rooms at the turn of the century were “up cycled” into computer rooms but all of us who teach drawing at third level know-if a student wants to learn analytic observation skills: Life draw. Life drawing is an opportunity to really connect with the world around you, and work with and respond to a live model, as well as take part in personalised as well as group feedback.
Students have an opportunity to submit their work for assessment (80% attendance is required to be eligible for assessment) should they wish to gain the MTU: Single Module Certification for this course. Some work outside of class-time is expected alongside classwork.
