Yesterday saw our last weekly Artists, Models, ink session at the Artist Residence Hotel, Brighton.
Our model was Lucy, and she brought us poses inspired by Olga Desmond- the first woman to be onstage naked and moving- the poses incorporated drapery & uplighting to create sculptural forms.
It was a great session to end on, and here’s some shots of some the work people did:
Drawings by Suzanne Rolfe, Bob Newton, James Green, Mark Armitage, Stephen Hiscock, Paul Clemmick & Julian Vilarrubi.
Thanks to everyone who came along to these sessions- we’ve had a great time putting them together!
Updates soon about our next event….
Thursday
THIS SATURDAY- ‘Statuesque’ is our last Museum of the Muse session at the Artist Residence hotel.
Life model Lucy has been inspired to create a drawing session around Olga Desmond- reportedly the first woman to be naked onstage. She’ll be creating a series of poses based around the ‘tableaux vivants’ of the early 20th Century.

THIS SATURDAY- It’s the last week of the ‘Museum of the Muse’, and will be brought to you by model Lucy.
Lucy will be bringing us a series of poses inspired by Olga Desmond- considered to be the first woman to be naked on stage. At the turn of the 20th century, ‘tableaux vivants’ were a popular form of entertainment. Up until around the late 1930s, it was illegal for women to be naked onstage…but only if they moved, hence the creation of ‘living paintings’.
The Windmill Theatre in London had regular tableaus, and with their slogan, ‘we never closed’ (ie: throughout WW2) brought a bizarre mixture of nudity and creativity to the country during very difficult times.
Artists, Models, Ink have created many tableau-homages in the past, so it is very apt that Lucy will be channeling Olga Desmond for our last Museum of the Muse session!

‘Museum of the Muse’- Week 4: Emma
Saturday saw Emma curating the museum of the muse.
Instead of picking a particular muse or artist, Emma chose to create a series of poses based around hands and feet, as these directly inspire her work when life modelling.
To accentuate the use of her hands and feet, she painted them bright red, creating a kind of trail of prints around her and on herself, which added colour and a fresh visual to everyone’s drawings.
Pre- drawing set up…

Apologies for the lack of photos of other people’s work- I was a bit forgetful this week!
