Humph, too far away from me, even though I'm in CA.

Might be moving within driving distance of SF this year though...

I'll have to keep this in mind. :)

What'll the setup be? Will we have benches or easels to use, or should we bring our own. Been burning the candle at both ends lately, but I might just put a wick in the middle for this, since it's only a couple of miles away.

How's parking around there? Don't wanna spend $10 on a class and $250 to get my rear window replaced.... :) I can take a bus if it's sketchy....but the bus at 2am might be just as sketchy.

What about beer? Can I bring some for the 21+ crowd?

Oh :P If only I lived in SF.. ^^
Have a lot of fun all of you who will be there!!

and don't get too drunk to draw all the 21+ peeps. :P (lol; In Holland you can drink beer from 16... :S hihi, but I don't like beer anyways so ah who cares)

love!

Damn it! I was so stoked to do some drawing tonight. I love the idea of a late night session. I guess my evening is clear to do some sculpting or the COW now.

You might get more people if you do it at night, rather than the morning, too.

The space is lit by natural light, so night is not much of an option. The lighting in the space is great, tho, it would make it worth your while to get there in the mornin :)

Nobody actually ruled out beer, I think I should say.

It was nice to see a few people in here today and have a chat. Like at the White House.. next week it's 11am till 2pm to let a few more people get up on time. Pop down and take a look at our happy home.

the first Saturday Session was a success!

we managed to break even, with 12 attendees showing up this morning, so that means we're doing it again next week!
we did realize that getting up at 9 am on saturday sucks though, so we're bumping them down to 11AM - 2 PM SATURDAYS until further notice.

the lovely Breanna graced us with her presence and even stood on her head for 5 minutes so we could draw her upside down. we'll do it all again next week, with another great model, so you don't want to miss it!

I'm totally gonna be there. Quick question, will there be any teachers there to help or ask questions too?

Layil
July 12th, 2007, 05:40 PM
nope, its just open figure drawing... but theres a fair bit of talent showing up now, so im sure you can learn a lot just by watching.

hope you can make it!

If only I was in California. I would've taken this opportunity in a heart beat.

Maybe when I go to the Atelier I can make it.

This thread should be shut, really. We stopped the session a few months back.

There is one school, and all the info is at the top if you click on the 'school' button.
