FIGURE STUDIES

During 1988 and 1989 I was fortunate to gain entry to lessons in the Healesville studio of Merv Moriarty to learn about drawing and painting from the figure. Entry was by interview. Classes consisted of drawing from the model in the morning, a break for lunch then painting from the model in the afternoon. What a treat!

Like many artists I have done hundreds of Life Study drawings over the years. It is a great way to exercise hand/eye coordination and to experiment with different ways of exploring form.

It is an essential to art practice in my opinion.
