Architectureof the Body

An oil painting marathon that is anything but dull

The human body is one of the hardest and most beautiful subjects in painting. In this master class we paint a male figure in oils, taking it not as a set of muscles but as a whole architectural form in which every volume answers to light, movement and construction. The lesson turns on painterly stylisation: we deliberately leave photographic detail aside and work in large planes and expressive strokes. This approach helps you understand the build of the body far better, see how the large volumes relate and learn to think in form rather than in separate details.

Back in 1996 my parents took me to a children's art school. That was how it was done - children were sent to learn to draw. But unlike my classmates at the "art school", even then I had made up my mind that painting would be my profession.

After school I went to a college of culture, where I qualified as a "Master Artist". It is the place where they taught me not only to paint, but to cross-stitch, to knot macramé, to model and to carve... In short, everything you can possibly imagine in the crafts was passed on to me there by experienced teachers.
