Studio 55 Group Overview

Set up starts at 12:45 and we have the model from 1-4p. We start with 20 minutes of nude gesture poses to warm up. Then we have one long pose at least partially clothed for the remainder of the time, with breaks for the model.

At 4, we usually do a friendly share/critique. We have up to 9 artists in the studio for the sessions.
