LIFE LESSONS
Draw from Life. 
Why? Because working from the live model teaches you the art of drawing - concepts like action (gestures), structure and edges (soft and hard). One of the great surprises in art is that drawing from a model won't just improve your figures, but also your landscapes, still lifes and portraits.

Meet at ArtServe 
1350 East Sunrise Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale, FL
Wednesdays 9:30 am - 2:00 
Dress warm and bring lunch
