Join Studio Maverik for a Thursday session of self-guided extended Long Pose Life Drawing, with three whole hours to explore a single pose.
This session is absolutely perfect for those who are looking to take their sweet time to creatively explore a single pose/composition without time pressures. In this extended long pose class, you are encouraged to bring along your ideal set-up and materials to immerse yourself in the unique opportunity of creating from life in a relaxed, slowed-down format.
What can I expect at this long pose session?
Long pose life drawing entails an experienced nude Life Model holding a single pose for an extended period of time, with small breaks throughout. In this three-hour session, you will have plenty of time to capture the essence of a single pose.
The class will start with some quick warm-up poses, then move into one long pose for the majority of the session. The class is capped at 12 spots to ensure each person has plenty of room to spread out, relax, move around and experiment with scale and materials.
Be sure to bring all of your drawing materials and settle in for a relaxed session with enough time to create a comprehensive piece. Feel free to bring an easel or set-up of your choice (plus some yummy sips and snacks, the event is BYO). We provide basic drawing materials, seats, drawing boards and cushions.
