A fun and relaxing evening of tutored life drawing inspired by Frederic Leighton's iconic Flaming June.
Immerse yourself in the languid beauty and sun-drenched atmosphere of Frederic Leighton's iconic "Flaming June" in this unique life drawing workshop. We'll delve into the captivating pose and radiant form of Leighton's sleeping muse, exploring the nuances of relaxed anatomy and the interplay of light and shadow that define this masterpiece.
The evening will include guided exercises focusing on gesture, contour, and shading techniques, as well as extended poses designed to allow for in-depth study of the model's form and drapery. Suitable for artists of all skill levels, from beginners to experienced drawers, and everyone seeking a creative, sociable and relaxing experience.
