PORTRAIT PRACTICE

10 Years of a Drawing Group

February 4-27

Reception: Friday, February 10, 5-7PM

This exhibit features work from an ongoing community of artists, models and group coordinators who have continued the dedicated practice of portraiture. The CAC Wednesday Afternoon Portrait Drawing Session was a break out group of artists from the Monday Morning Figure Drawing Session who wanted to focus on drawing the model's face in various poses.

Events

‘SIT INS’ in the Gallery

Saturdays, February 4 & 18, 1:00-3:00PM

Have your portrait drawn by a select group of artists from the portrait group (probably 20 min. poses).  Sitters may take home a drawing of their choice with a suggested donation to Chico Art Center.

‘DRAW INS’ in Classroom #2

Wednesdays, February 8 & 22, 1:00 - 3:00PM

Try your hand at participating in a real life drawing group experience with a live model (probably 20 min. poses).  Drawing materials are available. A quick 10-15 min. overview on basic portrait drawing proportions will be given.
