Figure Foundations at Utility Works MakerSpace
Figure Foundations: Realistic Drawing for Youth is a one-day introductory art workshop designed to help students ages 12–16 explore the fundamentals of realistic figure drawing in a supportive, pressure-free environment. The workshop emphasizes observation, proportion, and creative confidence rather than technical perfection.
Students will be guided through foundational drawing exercises that help them better understand the human form while building comfort with sketching from reference. No prior drawing experience is required. The workshop is designed to be accessible, encouraging, and appropriate for youth at varying skill levels.
