Let’s paint together!

Bring your favorite materials to paint or draw from a live model with one long pose.  Adults and teens of all skill levels are welcome to participate.  This is a time honored way to find your unique style.  No instruction is provided, however our moderator will be able to guide you if you get stuck. 

Hone your figurative drawing skills with several poses by a professional figurative model. We will begin with shorter gestural poses and increase the duration, finishing with one longer pose. Bring your favorite materials to quickly draw or paint a variety of poses. Adults of all skill levels are welcome.
