Rivoli Arts District, a great addition to the arts community, has live models to paint or draw from. I haven't had the opportunity to try out my oil paints on a live model so I thought I'd better give it a try. For $15 you get to set up for 3 hours, the model takes a stretch break around every 20 minutes. then resumes the position. After plein air painting this is right up there with being challenging. I did do some adjustments at home in my studio this am.
I have to apologize to our lovely model, Julia, my skills aren't up to par, but what I lack I make up with bold brush strokes and lots of color. Very fun and I knew so many of the other artists it was a very comfortable atmosphere.
Will have to go again. Thank you Sandra
They have drawing sessions too!
