Figure Drawing - The Body in Action

Welcome to my course, “Figure Drawing - The Body in Action!“My name is Robert A. Marzullo and I have been an online instructor for 6 years now and Ilove to help artist improve their skills. I am also the author of the book, “Learn to Draw Action Heroes.“It is my goal to help you learn figure drawing in a way that has a lasting effect. You won’t just draw along with me and try to remember by observation you will learn why the body moves and reacts the way that it does. You will learn about gesture and rhythms of the body, stereometric drawing, balance, body language, the bony landmarks, anatomy, foreshortening, and light and shadow. In this course we will do specific studies on the problems areas that hold artists back from drawing the human figure well!
