About our Single Pose 2 and 3 Dayers.
These untutored single pose sessions take place either over two days but most often over 3 days. They take place once a month in a warm and friendly, down to earth environment. Beginners through to experienced practitioners welcome.
Time will be spent at the beginning getting the model in an interesting yet comfortable pose in an environment conducive to those including it in their composition. There will be a maximum of 8 attending so there will be ample opportunity to move and find a position giving you something of interest to sustain you.
We will agree on a playlist of music for the session that will assist us getting into a flow state.Our fabulous models are usually good to sit for approximately 50 mins at a time. So we can have 50 mins, then ten minute break, then 50 mins, then ten min break then 45 mins. Lunch hour followed by 40 mins, ten mins break, 40 mins, ten min break, 35 mins.
Whilst we all wish for the model to be in exactly the same position after every break it is almost impossible. The main thing will be to get the torso of the model in the correct position that is comfortable and get the limbs in as relatively good position relative to the torso. Sometimes this can mean moving an inch or two ourselves to try and get exactly the same view. We will facilitate people getting as close to possible the same view but time will limit how long this can go on for each time as it cuts into painting time.
With all sessions, as we are voluntarily run, everyone will be expected to stay for 20 mins or so and help pack everything up. Many hands making light work.
