COURS - Volumes : Raccourcis et Rentrées de Contours

Mon, Oct 26, 6:30 PM

From Paris Modèle Vivant

4.8

🔎Deuxième cycle de cette année, essentiel mais intimidant à aborder seul·e : les volumes! Qui nous aideront à comprendre le modelé, les directions, la profondeur et les ombres. Nous poursuivons notre compréhension de la profondeur avec un cours un peu plus théorique ciblé sur les raccourcis, puis sur son application plus ludique au travers des rentrées de contours. On se retrouve à 19h30, mais qui veut peut arriver au local à partir de 19h pour grignoter, discuter! Attention, le local a changé, il s'agit maintenant de la Générale, près de la mairie du 14ème. (28 rue Mouton Duvernet, [vidéoguide ici](https://videos.files.wordpress.com/IUjUfyJQ/generale01.mp4)) Paiement en espèces (25€), sur place, et il y aura un chapeau pour qui veut donner un peu plus au modèle! Le matériel n'est pas fourni. Hâte de vous y voir! 🙂

Life Drawing Session 483 (female) GUY MÔQUET - Long pose

Sat, Nov 7, 10:00 AM

From Life Drawing Montmartre

4.8

Join us for a long pose workshop with a female model, led by figurative artist John Kelly. The session consists of 45 minutes of drawing or painting, followed by a 15-minute break, and then another 45 minutes with the same pose. John will be present throughout the entire session to offer individual guidance on the principles of drawing and painting from life. If you prefer a more self-directed approach, you are welcome to work independently at any time. The workshop is suitable for both beginners and more experienced artists. It offers a supportive environment to develop your artistic style while exploring different aspects of academic drawing or painting, experimenting with new techniques, or refining compositional ideas. It's designed to guide your exploration of the human form through an anatomical lens while capturing the model's emotional presence. As always, posing for you are professional fine art models affiliated with the Beaux-Arts de Paris and other Parisian life drawing ateliers. Please bring your preferred art materials. All media are allowed, including pastels, ink, watercolor, or paint. If you need additional advice on materials, such as oil paints or watercolor paper, please don’t hesitate to contact John directly at jfkellydesign@gmail.com or send us a message. This session doesn't provide a basic drawing materials set. Once again, please remember to bring your own art supplies. **About John Kelly** Born in Paris and raised in New York, John studied at the School of Visual Arts before pursuing a career as an art director and oil painter. He employs traditional oil painting methods while also painting *alla prima*. Influenced by Balthus, Degas, and traditional Japanese prints, his figurative work explores the psychology of the model and the viewer’s gaze. For more details, visit John’s website: johnkellyart.com. We kindly ask everyone to RSVP to secure their spot. If you haven't booked, we reserve the right to deny participation if the session is full. For any questions about a specific session, feel free to contact us via Meetup or email your host / organizer at [deni@lifedrawingmontmartre.com](http://deni@lifedrawingmontmartre.com/) or [maria@lifedrawingmontmartre.com](http://maria@lifedrawingmontmartre.com/) **Early Bird Discount** If you book your spot at least 6 days before the session, you can enjoy a special early bird rate.
