Dan Brown’s pulp fiction juggernaut has besmirched the name of the original Renaissance man, Leonardo da Vinci. Perhaps it’s time to restore Leo’s name to its rightful, dignified place.
Step into Leonardo’s Shoes in an anatomy drawing workshop run by Dr Brian Freeman, an associate professor in the department of anatomy at the University of NSW, and artist Susan Dorothea White.
Held at the university’s school of medical sciences, it uses actual embalmed specimens as models.
“We’ve been running the course since 2000 and we’ve never had people freak out,” Dr Freeman says.
The five-day intensive workshop runs from February 5 to 9 and costs $490. Registration is essential on 9385 2480. See www.leonardosshoes.com.
