Costumed Model Figure Drawing/Painting: “Halloween Themed Model”
Observational Art Practice

Thursday, October 15, 6:30–9:00 pm. $16. Taught by Charis.

Come practice drawing and painting from real life with a lovely cosplayed woodland fairy model! We’ll vibe out with good music as we draw and/or paint in our wonderful creative community.

Supplies are included: use of Charis’s pencils, drawing paper, acrylic paints and brushes, plus one medium-sized canvas per participant. You’re also welcome to bring your own supplies, including sketchbook, paper, or canvas and drawing materials, charcoal, watercolor, gouache, acrylics, or oils with safflower or linseed oil mediums. Anything other than smelly solvents is welcome! Table easels will be provided, so there’s no need to bring your own. This is a mostly uninstructed workshop, but Charis will be on hand to help with setup and answer questions.

Register by 10 pm the night before to guarantee a spot. After that, extra spots will be available only if there are extra canvases, on a first-come, first-served basis. The class may be canceled if there are no sign-ups the night before.
