Our amazing model and dress for the session.

We are so very lucky to have Dr. Colleen Darnell as our model for this session. Follow her at @vintage_egyptologist

Each Sunday in February we will draw live models posing in Victorian clothing while we listen to a wonderful reading of The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton. 

100 years ago, in 1921, this book won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction making Wharton the first woman to receive the award.

Join us for a two hour, live costumed-model drawing session. Use any supplies you wish, listen to music, share your work, chat with others. A great way to stay connected while drawing!

The ZOOM LINK will be emailed to you with your purchase.

For many of us, there will be a learning curve using ZOOM. As far as these interfaces go, it is very user-friendly. As with anything new, it takes a little time to get the hang of it. So here are a few tips:

If you can, use a desktop or laptop. They are the easiest to control, and of course, provide you with the largest image for you to draw from. If those are not available, a tablet works well. A phone works well but can be so tiny that the group aspect can get a little lost.

Try to get the best WiFi connection you can. For many us, that means being in a certain area of our home or office. It will elevate your experience, though almost everyone we worked with has had a good connection.

Upon entering: When you enter a meeting, your video and audio are off. You may turn them on as we cannot control your camera and audio, but this is not mandatory. Look for the Video and Audio buttons on your screen. (See below for paragraph on Audio.)

The whole joy of connecting with others in these circumstances is seeing each other. There will be a button on your screen (in different places, depending on your device) that says either Gallery View or Speaker View. WE RECOMMEND GALLERY VIEW. That’s the view with all the faces.

One of the best parts of these sessions is sharing work. During our breaks we share our work (you don’t have to). It is truly a joy to see each other’s work.
