In this class we will study various ways to approach drawing the figure
from life in a class setting. We will start with "shorter"
poses to learn to look for gesture lines and large repeating angles.
Various loose measuring techniques and common landmarks will be covered
before moving on to value and shading. By the end of the 4 week session,
the class will be ready for long-pose drawing from the live model. Learn more about this class... |

Long
Pose Open Figure Sessions
Every-Other
Saturdays, 6:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$10 per session
Please refer to
the schedule on Facebook for further information about specific dates, times, and models. We
will always start with 30 minutes of shorter poses, and either follow
with a 3 hour long pose, or a 1 hr pose and a 2 hr pose. The model will
be sometimes nude or sometimes with props or a costume. This is the
perfect place to try painting from life, work on composition, create
a finished drawing, or even sculpt! Please feel free to bring any artist
materials to work with that will not disturb nearby artists or leave
a mess behind. Space is plentiful.

Door Studio's Facebook Page. |

Private
Lessons
Lacey is currently
accepting new students for private lessons at the studio. Fees are $40/hr
if lessons take place at Red Door Studios, with an additional travel
fee for lessons scheduled in your home. Please contact
Lacey or see the Private Painting and
Drawing Lessons page for more information. |

| Models:
We
are always looking for new and talented models. We work with models
experienced in working for colleges, other artists, or whose previous
experiences include burlesque or other performances. We are interested
in the classic nude, but we also love working with models who are inspired
to take on a character and use props or costumes when the pose for us.
Models of both genders, all ages and shapes are needed for open figure
sessions and classes, which tend to be booked relatively far in advanced.
If you are interested in modeling for the sessions and/or future classes,
contact Lacey with your information,
availability, and experience. It is helpful to include an image or two
of yourself, not in order to reject you, but in order to help avoid
scheduling similar models consecutively. Please note that Lacey finds
herself to be very busy, so please do not get discouraged if your email
is not answered promptly. Please feel free to continue emailing if your
first inquiries are not answered; eventually you will get a response!
Also, please note that Lacey does not currently have any openings for
models for her own artwork. Generally, she chooses to work with models
with whom she is familiar, after learning about their personalities
and seeing that they will work well for a specific painting or drawing.
Thank you! |
