Do any of you guys know of any good ones? I've lost my hand at drawing and looking to get back in.

Life Drawing found on Craigslist

Post by vandyke »

Hi! I just found this listing on Craigslist; I've never attended their session so I can't recommend. It's probably a low key thing with several regulars. Good luck.

I actually attend this class every week (or as frequently as I can). It's a great place to draw. Fairly large studio loft that fits more than a dozen people. The models that come in present varied and dynamic poses. It starts off with about ten one-minute poses, then a couple of 2-minute, then goes up to five-minute, ten-minute, and ends with about 3 or 4 20 minute poses.

Not a bad deal for 10 bucks, and I have to say it's an awesome creative release and I think I've improved greatly. Plus wine and coffee. Street parking is also abundant at that time.

I highly recommend this workshop for those of you in the city and the Bay Area.
