Live Model Drawing

How to Register

Figure Drawing Workshop for High School Students

Live model drawing is one of the most challenging and valuable skills for aspiring artists. This two-week summer camp offers students an in-depth introduction to drawing the human figure from live models. Through guided practice, participants develop stronger observational skills, improve hand–eye coordination, and refine techniques such as proportion, shading, and contouring.


Students draw a variety of poses using both clothed models (open to rising 8th–12th graders) and nude models (open to rising 10th grade and above), helping them gain confidence working from real people and multiple perspectives. Ideal for students considering art school or building a strong portfolio, this camp is held at our Vienna location.
