Online Unguided Life Drawing - Nasim

Service Description

Welcome! We're holding these sessions twice a week whilst the studio is shut to keep us all practising, to connect with other like-minded people & just for a bit of fun! When all this started, we weren't sure if online sessions could work for us, but after having a go, we soon saw that it's really rather brilliant. Somehow there's still very much a community feeling & all the usual meditative benefits from a normal session & that's good news in our book! ANYONE can do it, all degrees of skill - maybe you've been too nervous to give it a go at the Studio? Now's your chance to have a go in the comfort of your own home! We work with some truly incredible life models from all over the world, who've made the online leap with relative ease, setting up great backdrops & lighting in their own homes. We'll be following a pretty typical pattern for the sessions: shorter warm ups followed by some longer poses with a break in between. All you need to do is download the Zoom app, then you can be drawing to your hearts content for 2 whole hours (Zoom is free and it's really pretty easy to navigate). Once you've paid for the session, you should get an email from us with very clear and easy to follow instructions on how to join in (if you haven't received it please contact us BEFORE the session is due to start). You’ll need a computer or tablet with good internet connection. What to expect: you'll be able to see the other artists drawing, but their screens will be small so once you get going, you don’t even notice them - the model’s screen will be large and central. During the session all microphones will be muted apart from mine and the models. If you have any problems / suggestions during the session you can unmute yourself or type a message in the ‘chat’ box. Please Note: Screen-grabbing, photographing or recording of this session (in any way) is STRICTLY PROHIBITED 🚫 Please respect the trust of the model. You will need to show your face at the beginning of the session - this is to make sure that you don’t have camera equipment set up, that you are not underage and that you are genuinely an artist - anyone who doesn’t show their face will have to be removed from the session. What else will you need? Something to draw with Paper (loose sheets or sketchbook) Something delicious to eat/drink (optional!) Designed for adults - suitable for 16-18 at the parent's discretion, this is not suitable for anyone younger than 16 years old.
