It's a weekly 3 hour figure drawing session, uninstructed, with a unclothed male or female model in a comfortable art gallery setting in Santa Monica. It's great for artists that want to keep their hand fresh and for people that would like to develop their skills in a relaxed no pressure, yet focused atmosphere.
$15
You will need to bring:
Newsprint for quick sketches;
Some good paper for longer poses, such as Rives BFK (about $3 a sheet, great stuff);
Soft graphite pencils 6B's, or soft charcoal pencils 6B's, and conte for the quick sketches.
Kneaded erasers are great.
An easel (if you want to stand);
And a drawing board or a cardboard portfolio (which also holds the paper.)
The gallery will have several chairs and stools.
Free parking in the building's parking lot on Colorado.
We need at least 4 people to cover the model fee, a reliable attendance is important.
Be sure to have my # 310-913-8986

“ Great space with considerate company, and lots of street parking. ”
“ Because it's a great enviornment that includes people who love the arts. The three hours go by pretty fast once you get started and focus on what you are drawing and need to improve on. ...
