Figure Drawing: Halloween Costume Portraiture

Attention all experienced & budding artists! You are invited to draw the human figure from a live model dressed in a Halloween costume. The session will be informal, but an experienced drawing teacher will be on hand to orient beginners during the first hour, then answer questions and provide suggestions at your request during the second hour. We will do some fairly quick poses but end with a much longer pose.

Please bring your own drawing supplies. This might include a sketchbook, drawing paper, drawing board and clips, easel, charcoal or charcoal pencil, Conte crayons, chalk pastels, or a vinyl eraser. No paint or watercolors are allowed.  

Seating is limited and registration is required.
