Bonus Workshop! Slave Leia

A bonus workshop for February!
There will be an additional workshop added this month.

I need to do a painting of Slave Leia, so I thought I'd open up the experience to you guys. This is not only an extra workshop it's an extra long workshop. So, I hope you can join me Saturday the 16th. I'll be painting from 2-8pm. We'll be giving the model a break for dinner so bring something for yourself! There will be some snacks. Note the price is a little higher but not much for all that extra painting and drawing time.

And don't miss out on Dejah Thoris workshop on the 26th.

Bring your friends!

February - Dejah Thoris the Princess of Mars

This month's theme will be Dejah Thoris from A Princess of Mars!

A few things to keep in mind for this workshop or similar where the model is nude or partially nude. These are the workshops that most likely no photography will be allowed. Sometimes the model will allow me to take photos, but this is always at the models discretion. When I do have that option I try to take as many as I can that don't show nudity so I can then share them with any of the participating artists that ask for them.

What I'm hoping you will focus on at the workshop is the fabrics. I plan on using sheer fabrics for the costuming. See how it is affected by the light when the light is passing through or being blocked by skin. I'll do my best to get some cool jewelry as well. Jewelry can act as visual clues for the direction and perspective of construction elipses. And I'm hoping I can paint up the model with some tattoos (inspired by the recent movie) that will also help with similar shape clues.

This will be another awesome workshop not to miss.

Bring your friends!
