#figure drawing workshop in chicago

LIVE


Michael does it again!!! We’ll be painting him as a dwarf. We’ll get creative and see how we can change how to look a bit shorter than he already is. And an awesome crossbow to work on. This costume is based on the armor worn by the Belgian arabalesters, or crossbowman, from the battle of Visby.

I’ll be sure to exaggerate his beard. What would you plan to do?





I would also like to let you know this website is where future event posts will be placed as well as the Facebook group page.

We will start off with some short poses, and one long pose for about four hours or more.

If you take photos of the model (and you’ve asked for permission) you’ll need to also tip the model. 

Bring your friends and have them sign up too!

ONLY $20

I’ve been wanting to add a head study night for a very long time. With the help of Melissa Sue Stanley andPlatform Studios we are finally making it happen. We’re going to all get a little closer and work on our portraiture skills, our head anatomy, or whatever you feel you need to focus on.

We encourage you to volunteer to be a model. It will get you a free pass to a future session or workshop. Get a friend to come in to sit for us.

Three hours, one pose.
