so after a couple of sketches and a toilet break i'd started to loosen up and enjoy the lesson. it was like a typical art session. the director of the group gives you a time limit but also a theme. so say some poses he suggested placing her on a broom. stirring a cauldron or rising from a grave. which was prity fun. and after every round of drawing the director of the day picked out his favorite piece and gave the artist a prize and then an overall prize at the end of the day. as it went on i noticed my self getting prity competitive but it was my first time and it was fun. and it payed of in the end cause i won a runner up prize at the end. a loverly pair of tights and a water color set.
also a benifit from the day was seeing other people's styles and methods. i met one lady who was on her travels from Arizona and had been to one of these back in the states. she won first prize so that was cool to see seen as she had come the way and all. so all in all i was quite impressed by how this thing gets around. and i'm definatly going to the next one. the next one is dated as 3rd of November but where is to e announced. check out the site
