This page presents samples of life drawings and paintings submitted by successful applicants to our program.

We request drawings and paintings of the human form because they give us an idea of an applicant's ability to perceive functional structure, proportion and light on forms. Rendering of fine detail is of secondary concern. Images must be drawn from direct observation of a live model and without the use of photography. In-depth studies of limbs or isolated features may also be submitted, for example, a study of a torso or of the lower limb and foot. Quick gestural sketches may also be submitted. Portraits, including self-portraits, are encouraged. We also like to see fore-shortened views of the figure. An applicant's portfolio must include six life drawings and/or paintings, including at least two long poses (greater than one hour).

All images are copyrighted by the respective artist. All rights reserved.
