We look at the anatomical forms you need to look for in a figure quick sketch. It's fantastic how straight forward things can be when you really simplify things down.

If you become good at finding these 3 sections of the torso and how they relate to each other, you are 90% of the way there with your figure drawing quick sketch. Scott has really simplified things down for us, and it works!

Figuary is a 28 day Figure Drawing Challenge that we do throughout February every year together with Croquis Cafe.

We will go more in depth on this in the live session. Go to the Figuary 2021 link above for more details.

We at Love Life Drawing will provide a series of tutorials like this one and live sessions to help you improve your technical skills. Tutorials will come out on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout February, plus an extra one on Saturday 6th! Live sessions are every Wednesday and Sunday.

Croquis Cafe will provide life model reference videos for you to practise your skills everyday. It’s a powerful combination and many people have credited Figuary in past years with kickstarting or accelerating their life drawing progress.

There is a community area (link above) where you can share your drawings with fellow artists (see link above), plus you can use the #figuary21 on Instagram.

Tutorial series:
This year we are bringing you a series of 10 lessons, so it’s more like a mini-course than just quick tips. We have collaborated with life drawing teacher Scott Breton to bring you a powerful sequence of exercises designed to build your figure quick sketch skills.

Week 1 – the surprisingly simple anatomy you need to tackle the figure in a quick sketch plus the first exercise – the Block In.
Week 2 – the second exercise – Designing Long Lines, plus we will learn about Designing Big Shapes.
Week 3 – Gestural Mark Making.
Week 4 – Learning from the extraordinary artist Andriy Vynogradov (aka @vynillus).
Lessons will come out every Tuesday and Thursday, plus in week 1 there will be extra videos on Monday 1st and Saturday 6th. They will be posted on our YouTube channel.

Live sessions:
In the Figuary Live Sessions, which will be on our website and not on Youtube (go to the Figuary 2021 page linked above), we will look at the poses you’ve been drawingm we'll give feedback on people’s drawings from the community area, plus we will have various artist guests. Our live sessions are always fun and relaxed, so I hope you’ll join us!
The live session schedule:

Every Wednesday in Feb at 9pm UK time.

Every Sunday in Feb at 3pm UK time.
