Henry Yan
Workshop
We're excited to welcome Henry Yan to DaVinci Studios.
In this 5-day workshop, Henry will provide 3 days of charcoal drawing instruction and 2 days of oil painting instruction from live models. Henry will share his various techniques and styles in drawing human figures. He will teach with step-by-step demonstrations, using both detailed and traditional methods as well as showing fast and painterly styles. He will provide his tips and thoughts throughout.
Learn how to use different methods and techniques in drawing and painting the figure with charcoals and oils. Accurate structures and values will be emphasized in drawing practices, and how it has been used in paintings. Applications, in both drawing and painting, of line works, rendering of forms, color choices, brush work, edge control, composition, and design, will all be explained and demonstrated. Different techniques introduced in the book “Henry Yan’s Figure Drawing Techniques and Tips” will be used in drawing and painting practices. Although it is a drawing and painting workshop, students can also choose to draw for the entire time of the five-day workshop.
