Many people, mostly those who don't draw often, have asked why do artists bother drawing from a nude model, given that the market for selling these kind of works will not be huge, and many don't put them on display. And yet life drawing has been a critical part of art practice for centuries.
So we thought it would be interesting to ask artists why they personally keep coming back to draw from a live model. We've asked the same question to a number of artists, and all have shared their experience and views as to what contribution life drawing makes to their overall skill set or art practice.
Some of these are professional artists, some are art teachers, some are beginners, some draw as a leisure activity. We'll be sharing these stories over the next couple of weeks, along with a piece of work that was created in, or inspired by the sessions in Life Drawing Bangor.
Stay tuned for a journey of discovery!
