Introduction:
This two-day course offers an engaging exploration of the human form, combining observational and experimental approaches. Participants will build skills in proportion, gesture, anatomy, and mark-making, working with both traditional and expressive drawing techniques. Drawing inspiration from historical and contemporary artists, students are encouraged to experiment and develop their own visual style.
Open to all levels, the course is perfect for anyone looking to gain confidence in figure drawing, whether for personal practice or academic development. Guidance will also be provided on choosing and using materials, including papers, graphites, and charcoals, to help bring your drawings to life.

Tutor Profile:
Lucia Canuto
Lucia formally trained as a printmaker. Since graduating from the VCA in 2014, her work has expanded through the mediums of screen print, cyanotype, photography and drawing as well as experiments utilising both plant based and synthesised dyes. This process is somehow reminiscent of alchemy.
She is interested in language, translation and archival print materials; mainly newspapers and small publications. Her most recent body of work has been informed by Donna Haraway’s theory of Sympoiesis. That concerns itself with inter-species relationships and biodiversity.
Lucia is part of the Kunst collective who opened a community funded artist run initiative in Byron Bay last year, providing a space for local and interstate artists to exhibit.
