Off-Beat Figure Drawing in Calgary, Alberta

Photos are from several years ago in Calgary, Alberta.
My friend Deseré hosts 3-5 of these figure drawing events most years.

Models, Figure Drawing, Music and Wine

One or more models, usually female, sometimes a male model is included.  Some quiet live music most events.  Sometimes wine available.  All for a very reasonable fee.

I was invited as a photographer a few times to be part of and help document the event. 

The whole process of the event encouraged creativity.
And the results were amazing.  So many different interpretations.  Chalk, ink, pen, pencil. 

What I did with the images of the models ...

For a number of reasons, I’ve turned the model photos into paintings.T
he three of the nudes and the others included here are from one of the sessions that I attended.
