Life Drawing at the Frankfurt Art Bar

Hi sketchers, we invite you once again to come and draw together from a live model! Suitable for all levels, this is an opportunity to practice the timeless challenge of drawing the human figure.

Photos from previous sessions and examples of sketches are on our instagram: @life_drawing_frankfurt

Entry is free but we appreciate donations, these go towards the models, the organisers, and future sessions. We also ask that participants please order something from the bar out of respect for our kind hosts.

The Session

The model will be in underwear and will pose on the stage. Participants can draw from the seating area. We recommend bringing your own materials, but basic drawing supplies are also available.

We'll start off with short, dynamic 1 min poses, which will increase in length up to a final long pose (15 or 20 mins). There will be a break halfway through the session.

You are free to draw as you like, this is an untutored session, but don't hesitate to ask one of us (Tabi or Sofie) if you want help or feedback!

The Venue

We are hosted by the Frankfurt Art Bar, a friendly live music bar/restaurant. It is a 6 min walk from Frankfurt-Louisa Bahnhof (S3, S4, or Trams 17, 18).

The Organisers

We are two students at the Academy of Fine Art, a small art school in Bad Homburg with a focus on realistic drawing and painting. We both love the practice of life drawing, we found it fun to do with friends and incredibly helpful as a way to improve as an artist. So now we are trying to bring this to Frankfurt, as a way to bring people together and share the love of figure drawing :)
