A bit of a change

Starting from the next session (August 15th), I’ll be taking on a partner to run the sessions for me every other week for the foreseeable future. I’ll still be there for the setup and will stick around until the model shows up, so if you come in a little early you’ll still catch me there. The young lady who will be running the sessions, Sara, is a classmate of mine and also a semi-regular attendee of the sessions and is certainly more then capable of making sure things run smoothly.

To coincide with this change, I’m going to be changing the model rotation to be two weeks of male models followed by two weeks of female models. This is purely a selfish decision on my part as I want to be able to continue to draw both forms and not be limited to just one.

Fresh faced

We came back with a great turnout which involved a new face and the welcome return of one that hasn’t been in the country for months.

Our model for the evening was Paul, and the musical theme for the evening was from the local act Day of the Dead and the other was from my own home country, Arcade Fire (for which I got thanked for playing… that hasn’t happened before). Next week we’ll be having Lindsay in.

And we’re back

After a week off we’ll be back up and running this coming Monday (the 1st) with a new face for us. The model for the evening will be Paul, and though he may be new for us he has been modelling for other sessions around Perth.

On the 8th, we’ll be having Lindsay back in again, who we actually haven’t had in since April, so it’s a been awhile.

We had Jane in, and Jane had a sword

No lie, Quite possibly the oddest, and coolest prop any model has brought to a session that I’ve attended in Perth (beaten only by a model back when I was in college a long time ago that brought a devil’s pitchfork and a headband with horns on it). It was a great night and as per Jane’s request the musical theme was quite literally random. So I do apologise for those of you who did not really appreciate the Ensiferum, Judas Priest, William Shatner and Mayumi Kojima. ThHough I’ll admit I enjoyed hearing some of my odder collection being played.

Whoops

I truly do hate when I forget to do a post for the week. We had Sophie in on the 11th and it was a great session. And we had a great turnout too even with the cold wet weather. Musical theme for the evening was Portishead.

Upcoming models

At the UWA sessions here we’ll be having Sophie in on the 11th and Jane (whom we haven’t had in in quite some time) in on the 18th. The two weeks of female models are to make up for the two weeks of male models. As a reminder, there will be no session on the 25th, so we we’ll be back with a male model (undetermined at this time) on August 1st.

Also, there is an upcoming art expo coming up on July 10th. It’s a bit too late to apply to  exhibit in it, but it should still be worth checking out:
