Britain's What's On Event Guide
Drawn From Life
Drawn from Life is an exhibition in celebration of the human form with drawings and paintings by a group of artists who meet to create art direct from life.
The Drawn from Life group was established back in January of 1997. Initially the members were all art teachers or others with a background in art and they began meeting together regularly to draw and paint from the human form.
There is no tuition within the group as it was always intended to provide an opportunity for like-minded people to join together, in an activity they enjoy. With currently around 12 members, mostly of mature years, they continue to meet regularly on Saturday mornings during college term time in one of the art studios at QMC.
Our sessions are notably friendly and relaxed and we are fortunate to have a list of regular and popular life models, with the group members taking turns at directing weekly sessions which assists in achieving a variety of poses.
Our most recent exhibition was in 2022, which was also at Proteus Creation Space, and we are very much looking forward to displaying our work which will reflect the wide range of artistic styles and media used by our members.
