Portrait Drawing from Live Model - Free Demo

Thursday, February 8,  11am
Free Daytime Demonstration:

"Portrait Drawing from a Live Model"
Nathan Seay

Nathan Seay will demonstrate portrait drawing from a live mode, in charcoal. Emphasis will be placed on drawing from careful observation, and less on theory.

Using his technical training, Nathan has focused his efforts on spontaneously capturing his subject in a method that is intuitive, yet informed by nature. After graduating with a BA from the University of South Florida in December 2013, Nathan studied briefly at the Repin Academy in St. Petersburg, Russia.
