Are you tired of drawing naked people? Want to feel like an old portrait artist painting in a smokey French salon?*
Historic Portraiture is your chance to work from a live historic interpreter modeling an exquisite, historically accurate 18th century gown. Campy, historic, and bourgeoisie all in one night.
First, you'll get a look at the undergarments and structure of 18th century clothing by doing warm up sketches with short poses in undergarments. We'll talk fashion and underwear history, so chic.
Then, watch how an 18th century Lady would get dressed in her best gown and draw or paint a 1hr long seated pose.
ALL Styles welcome; Media of choice, painting encouraged! Fancy snacks and supplies provided, BYOB (Bev and Berets)
