Take Your Art to the Next Level — Enroll in the Figure Academy at Visual Art Institute! Are you ready to grow as an artist, challenge yourself, and create work you’re truly proud of? The Visual Art Institute’s Figure Academy is a powerful 2-week immersive experience designed for passionate Jr. High, Sr. High, and adult students ready to elevate their craft. Each day, you’ll work from the figure in either drawing or painting, guided by professional artists who have taught at several universities. With daily, in-depth critiques, you’ll sharpen your skills, gain personal direction, and learn to create with confidence and intention.

For the second two days, we’ll be creating the animation by moving our puppets across the scenery, photographing each step, and linking all images together. The last day of class will be a chance to watch our masterpiece, and experiment with other animation tools for fun.
