A new model brings 2025 to a close in spectacular fashion

 

 


Wonderful way to end the year with 10 artists and Jenifer, a brand new model.  I hope the holidays are relaxing and memorable for all the Black Hand Group members.  Merry Christmas to all and to all a very Happy New Year.  See you on the other side.

No drawing last night

 With a small group and the model we decided that the dropping temps and increasing snowfall would present less than ideal travel conditions.  So we called it.  Let's try again next week before our hiatus until after the new year.

 Only two more sessions left in 2025.  Stop in and enjoy a nice relaxing evening drawing from the figure.

Getting ready for Thanksgiving with another full house






 
Wonderful seeing some new faces and some returning ones to fill our studio full to bursting for another great session of drawing from the model.  A great way to end the month and take everyone into the holiday feast season.

Samm to the rescue








 Our scheduled model had a, well, scheduling conflict.  As is often the case, Samm rose to the occasion.  We are very lucky to have her and we all benefit from her work with us.  It was another full house, with two more students fulfilling their required sessions.  I only wish some of them would take advantage of the resource The Black Hand offers.
