My dear artist friend, we'll call her M, informed me recently about a non-instructional figure drawing session at a teashop. It will be a monthly thing, beginning this Friday. As neither of us have drawn from a live person recently, we are a bit nervous, but the power of two (e.i. of not doing something alone) has emboldened us to step out of comfort zones. For a small fee, you get to sit around a semi-clothed model with other artists and practice drawing. It sounds like all the fun of a drawing class without the pain of a teacher telling you that you are terrible or that so-and-so is the only one with the proper perspective.
M has also managed to give me the gentle push that I needed for me to consider putting my art work on display. She was kind enough to give me the tips I needed for putting together my portfolio. It all very crazy and yet exciting. I will try to keep you informed.
