Wednesday, March 3 was the first figure drawing and painting class at Flicker Street Studio. For many students the class was their first encounter with a live model. The pace of the class was intense. We started off with a series of gesture drawings.This gave everyone an opportunity to get used to the figure in the space. The students used a water soluable graphite crayon, a new material for everyone so there was an element of surprise and lack of control. We moved to two longer poses using a monochromatic color scheme. For a first day, the paintings were very strong!
