8-Week Immersion Course in Drawing, Painting, and Art History (beginner, intermediate and advanced levels welcome) Course fee: 41800 SEK Course outline: In this 8-week course, students will learn the fundamentals of drawing and painting by working on exercises based on our 3-year academic program under the guidance of Florence Academy faculty members. Classes follow a weekly schedule but the individual exercises can be tailored to each student, which means beginners and advanced students alike can participate. Students will learn how draw and paint from direct observation, which will include time with a live model each week. There will also be at least one guided visit to the Gothenburg Museum of Art. The workshop is an immersive experience into the Florence Academy environment and students are invited to participate in weekly evening classes offered to our full-time students. This includes addtional figure drawing, art history lectures, anatomy classes, and more. All materials necessary to complete the course will be provided, however, students are encouraged to bring their own drawing and oil painting materials. A supply list will be provided upon request.

Drawing the human body is one of the cornerstones of artistic training and is central to the education at The Florence Academy of Art. The anatomical complexities of the human form help us to improve our observational and interpretative skills. We invite anyone with a passion for art to join us in the model room for 5 weeks. The model will hold the same position for each 2 or 3 hour session. This gives students the chance to make an advanced study of the figure, which is a unique opportunity not found in most figure drawing classes. Beginners and experienced artists alike are welcome to join. Professional feedback will be given on an individual basis in English or Swedish. We will provide chairs and drawing boards for everyone. Students can help themselves to an easel if there is an empty space 10 minutes before class begins. You need to bring pencils, paper, tape and an eraser. Class times: Mondays / 16:30-18:30 Tuesdays / 16:30-18:30 Course Dates (5 weeks each): Between Oct 9 - Nov 9 (2023) Between Nov 13 - Dec 14 (2023) Between Jan 15 - Feb 15 (2024) Between Feb 19 - Mar 21 (2024) Between Apr 15 - May 16 (2024) Between May 20 - Jun 20 (2024) -
