This isn't for folks just looking for a fun place to try drawing. This meetup is a figure drawing workshop for working illustrators (current illustration/art students welcome!). Unlike other figure drawing meetups, we limit attendance to people who are currently engaged in illustration and visual arts as a career. We use this workshop as a way to improve our work and engage with other artists.
We draw from the figure, we look at each others' work, we learn, and we improve. We also have a good time doing it! The models usually do some short poses, and then a long pose, though we're flexible so the format can change depending on that day's group's needs.
We have two meetup locations. There are irregular daytime sessions in Williamsburg, and weekly sessions in Greenpoint. Both studios are spacious and used by working artists 100% of the time. All sessions are for you to try new things, or improve on old ones. We started weekly sessions so members can come regularly and find their rhythm in working with the figure, and make leaps forward in their work.

This is the new location for the evening meetups. We will have a model for 3 hours, starting with quick poses and spending the bulk of the session on a long pose. The space we are working in is heated, and very close to the G train in Greenpoint.
Please feel free to bring a snack or drink to share.
We ask that people help set up and clean up afterwards as this is a shared studio space.
