Art House Hotel
The most recent life drawing was with Catherine earlier this year, when we both went to the Art House Hotel, paid our $3 for a life drawing session. The model was a petite lady, but muscular. At the Art House, it appears that the model dictates how long each pose was held. She was obviously not an artist herself because she did something like 20 x 2 minute poses as a warm up. We were not just warmed up, it was too frantic for us to get anywhere.
Subsequently, she did some 5 min poses followed by some 10 min poses. These were better for me, although no less intense because of the concentration required to capture something in the very short time. I was quite pleased with the results although I left feeling somewhat exhausted. Some experienced artists did quite well but I will not be going back for this model again!
