Bad Santa, no cookie

So, I know it has been awhile since I posted about drink & draw. I've just been a little bit busy lately. I missed about three posts for this, I think. Anyway, December 11 was memorable! Our model was Ian Green, who clowns for Zany Umbrella Circus. He was an amazing model, developing an entire character for the evening.

I want to mention, too, that Ian is a painter as well as a clown.

We are taking a brief hiatus from drink & draw, but will be returning on January 8 with Brian Czarniecki. Stay tuned!

Drink and Draw with Richard Gartner

Yesterday evening was really intense. Richard did a series of thirty 5-15 second poses with a 5-10 minute pose to finish. This is from the first set--



Steve drawing Richard during the second set --



We had a really good turn out, considering that it was such an unbearably hot night. There wer quite a few of us and we were unusually quiet during the session. Excpet for some sympathy groans for the extreme poses.

Next session is July 24. for more information join us on MySpace.

Seaman Sarah @drink and draw

Sarah brought rigging to the brillobox for the last drink and draw. She had all these great sailing props.

She actually has her seaman's papers n@. All that rigging, tools, knives and other pointy metal things were here gear.

Tough chick, great model!

Next up: Richard Gartner: gesture intensive.

Okay, I know I have to get a video editor if I keep doing this. I tried uploading this one to photobucket because it looked like they have an onsite video editor. But ick! Can you see this video with, like, BUNNIES around it?
