Atelier Figure Studies

Six terms covering Bargue plates, cast drawing, sight-size measurement, anatomical figure, long-pose, and final master-study replication. Clear milestones at every level — no aimless practice.

Submit your work each week. Master artist Lucien Marais and the senior cohort return paint-overs with annotated notes that train your eye, not just your hand.

One Bargue/structure critique session midweek, one long-pose live model session every weekend. Recordings stay in the library, so you can study the master's strokes after the fact.

Curated pose libraries, écorché studies, master comparisons, and verified medical reference. Sortable by gesture, lighting, and tradition.

Vetted recommendations for every stage — paper weights, charcoal grades, vine vs. compressed, fixatives. Members get bulk-buy referrals from boutique suppliers.

Replicate one drawing or painting from a great — Holbein, Sargent, Bouguereau, Sorolla. Submitted under shared rules, critiqued together, displayed in the gallery.

Drop into a quiet, camera-on shared room any weekday and draw alongside other members. Just like a real atelier — except your studio is wherever you are.
