I finally finished up a bunch more of these drawings of Berlin life drawing muses E & L.
E & L, aka Rosiichbinnackt, no longer do life modeling so I was damn lucky to draw them! That’s L above; I just drew her twice 😉
You can see the previous posts from these wonderful community drawing sessions here and here.
The sessions were hosted by Lydia Schuchmann and Flavia Scuderi, two immensely talented professional working artists.
I wish you could see all the other drawings that were made there, there were some terrific draughtspeople!
And it was at one of these drawing sessions that I borrowed a chalk marker from Lydia. Using white chalk markers has opened up my drawings so much!!
Thanks a million to Lydia, Flavia, E and L!
Visit my flickr for free downloads of these drawings and many, many, many more. Remember you’ll need to be logged in to a flickr account with adult safeties turned off to see some of them 🙂
I don’t do life drawing often, because I did so much in art school.
She is also a professional life model, who worked for seven years at the top New York art schools, including the Art Student’s League and the School of Visual Arts, two of the places where I went to school!
So when I heard she was the model for the second-to-last ever session of my beloved
The session was held as a collab between Sketchy’s and Drink and Draw, on Drink and Draw Berlin’s
The boat is docked on the river Spree, and is set up as a permanent life drawing space, with model platforms, hanging drapery, props, easels, and a variety of seating including very comfy!
And there is a bar where one can get an apfelschorle, and it is just so lovely.
Towards the end of the session Liliana did a reverse strip with some marvelous undergarments, including a lovely pair of ouvert pants.
I love to draw models in stockings and lingerie, so I enjoyed this greatly!
Underthings are some of my favorite things! Liliana is so elegant and graceful it was like watching a master class in dressing for the boudoir.
