Last night's session was all about the work - everyone was laser focused on their drawings and Linda's beautiful poses. It was a perfect, quiet night with the perfect model. Our thanks to Linda and thanks to all of you for supporting Life Drawing.

We're going to be taking a break from drawing next week and I'll be posting the line-up of models for November and December. Hope you get lots of treaters and no tricks and I'll see you back at Read All Over on Monday, November 5th.

"Just show up & get to work"

After the crowd we've had for the last few weeks, this Monday we were down to just a few of the "hard-core" regulars. It was a nice quiet, intimate night and, as always, over too quickly.

Keith was a wonderful model and did an amazing job posing for us.

Linda will be posing for us on Monday, October 22nd.

I've included this video of Chuck Close on "notes to younger self". There are a lot of lessons here ...

Circle in the Square

Last night, we started drawing a little later so we could see Nicole Hamilton's amazing new paintings at Bistro Bethem. There was a great turn out for her opening and it was clear that she has found her voice in her beautiful portraits and still life work. The show will be up for the month of October - so you have plenty of time to stop in.

Back at Read All Over - our "always awesome" Janet was our model for the evening and we changed things up a bit by putting the model in the center of the room and artists sat in a circle around the model. It was new and invigorating and there was such great work created. We welcomed a new artist, it was a nice sized crowd of regulars and we had so much fun!

Keith will be posing on Monday, October 15th. Hope to see you all there!
