November Workshop

The November theme will be Star Trek. 

Draw or paint the model as is or push yourself to make her into an alien. I'll probably add some elf ears and will be using some different colors for her skin tone. Maybe she's blue, green, or purple. If you're sticking to pencil or charcoal invent some interesting features, tattoos, or other details.

We will start off with some short poses, and one long pose for about four hours or more. The fee for this workshop will be $25. I'll have some snacks and drinks. If you take photos of the model (and you've asked for permission) be sure to give a tip.

June Workshop - Silver Surfer

The June theme will be Silver Surfer. 

Terry, one of Chicago's premier cosplay stars, will be posing for the workshop in his simple but effective Silver Surfer costume. A costume like this is the best of both worlds, figure drawing and costuming. Plus the added metallic skin. I'm really looking forward to this next workshop.


We will start off with some short poses, and one long pose for about four hours or more. The fee for this workshop will be $25. I'll have some snacks and drinks. If you take photos of the model (and you've asked for permission) be sure to give a tip.
