as space, composition and pictorial structure.

different poses and a sustained pose over
the final five weeks.

Life Painting: Figure in a Room
Francis Hoyland

What we are is bound to be the module for
what we perceive. How many steps would it
take us to reach the far wall? How heavy does
that man over there look compared to my
weight? And so on. This is part of the way we
perceive our environment. It’s relatively simple
for us to empathise with one other person,
but can we empathise with one other
room with a whole person in it? Again, this is
a matter of empathy stretching from ourselves
to our surroundings. I can’t do better
than Rainer Maria Rilke who wrote “Space
spreads transposingly from us to things”. So
to a certain extent the journey out is always
the journey in. There will be two sustained
poses over the term, each of five weeks’ duration.
This will give us the advantage of painting
onto dry paint each week.
-A full list of materials required will be sent to students before the class commences.

In this class students will be encouraged to
consider how the model relates to the environment
they are situated in, the emphasis
being on finding equivalents in colour for
their experience of looking at the model
(and their surroundings). The length of pose
will vary from one to several sessions.
Individual tuition will be given. All levels
welcome including beginners.
