So, I had the great fortune, during the end of 2009, to come across the
Robert Beverly Hale master class recordings that were made sometime in 1976 before he retired. The recordings are of the complete lectures he gave on artistic anatomy and the human figure. The video quality is not so amazing, but all the content is there and is packed with valuable info. Hale was the successor of
George Brandt Bridgman at the Art Students League of New York. Hale's bio is really interesting. If you don't know who Bridgman is, LOOK HIM UP NOW!!!
I highly recommend this series of lectures.
As artists, we are limited by what we understand and should be making constant effort to further our understanding of the world around us. If you like figure drawing, and want to truly understand and master the human form, check out what Hale and Bridgman have to offer.
