PORTRAITURE 2021

We are an enthusiastic group of artists who like to challenge ourselves drawing and painting live from the model. We work at our own pace without tutoring. Generally the model poses for two sessions and changes each fortnight. Some artists draw in pastels, charcoal and pencil, and many of us paint in oils, water-based oils, acrylic or watercolour. We pose the clothed model on a raised dais with draped fabric backgrounds with a spotlight highlighting the head.

Bring all your own art materials. There are easels, donkeys, small tables and chairs in the studio. Please arrive at least 15 minutes early to set up. We also self-cater supper at tea time, so please add your name to our roster posted over the kitchen bench.
