This is a new weekly offering from Open Figure Drawing.
The drawing sessions start with 5 one minute gestures, and continue with 3 forty-five minutes poses. The 1st forty-five minute pose will start soon after the end of the gestures. The rest of the poses will have long enough breaks to be able to start the 2nd & 3rd poses at the top of the hour.
Sunday, January 18, 2026, 1 – 3 pm
Long Pose drawing sessions consist of 1 pose, with breaks for the model, for the entire 2 hr session.
Long Pose (nude) sessions are usually on the 3rd Sunday of the month, & Long Pose (clothed) sessions are usually on the 2nd Sunday of the month.
