Here are some of the sketches I made at the Thursday night Open Figure Drawing at the RICA in Raleigh. I've gone for the past two weeks and I have to say it's pretty fun and super chill. No pressure or stress. Just paper, model, and people who love to draw. Anyone at any skill level is welcome.
The session starts off with some quick one minute poses to get the juices flowing. Then some five, ten, and twenty 20 minute poses.
I've needed to start drawing more lately. So I have really been appreciating this outlet. Plus since these sessions are so chill a lot of really talented professional artists come out. You never know who you might be sitting next to.
Do watch out for the Parking trolls!!!! The bar next door will tow you. There is a parking deck down the road a bit and there is some parking down the street. You can park in the train station or the union station parking lot. Just don't get caught and you didn't here it from me...
The classes are $10 for non-members $8 for members.
