Our Monday morning Live Model classes are continuing from 10:00 am to 12:00 noon. Everyone who has a pad of paper, some pencils or charcoal stick is welcome to draw at the Club.
The group has decided to expand from drawing people to doing "Still Life". These will be held on Thursday afternoons from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 or 3:30 p.m.. Each week there will be different objects as models. You can also use any medium that you wish. This could be pencils or paint of any type. If you prefer crayons, go for it.
