Life Drawing at Adelphi Mill

Whereas it is nice to have a break, I do love it when my students return.  I have been so busy in the studio that I have not had time to blog!


Last night was a lovely session with my beginners' group.  I am so proud of the way they are coming along! 


We had the wonderful 'Fleet Foxes' in the background which set a lovely tone for the session. 

I am only sorry I did not take photographs of the fabulous poses Hannah produced for our 1 minute sketches but this was a great pose for our half hour study.

Although tiny, the studio can comfortably accommodate 5 students during a life drawing class.

We are having a break from the model next week as we will be looking more at colour mixing and experimenting with different paints.

Last night

Internet down...

so despite falling flat on my back after slipping on a wet leaf (yes, really!) and hobbling on a sprained ankle, I have managed to get the studio looking like an organised room! Oh yes! It is coming together now. I just have to work out which classes to put on. I'm struggling to get life models, though!

stock!

I don't EVER have to buy any more paint. I am so stocked up for my students, it's actually quite scary. I think if I held oil painting classes for the next 4 years I'd still have some left.

I feel the studio is getting together now - the kiln is unwrapped and is shining at me from the corner of the room.

Still waiting for the gallery fixings to be sorted, the sign for outside and the tables and chairs. As soon as I have them sorted and the shelves organised, it'll be 'let the classes commence!'

Hmm, still looking for life models, though...
