DRAWING FROM LIFE.

Last Friday night i was ask by the Amazing David Hoyle to be a model for his Life drawing class at the RVT. Life drawing modeling is not something i have done before but after last Friday its definitely something i want to do again.
Though I cant imagine that i will get to perform the same poses as last Friday in say a classroom situation. shame as i think a classroom of under 16's would have found it interesting.
I'm not always just hands on hips with one leg slightly bent, or reclining on ones side kind of model. All i can say is if you have seen David Hoyles shows at the RVT then you know what poses they would have been. And if you know me at all, well then.
As David Hoyle would say

"I'll leave it with you."

Hopefully we will get to do it all again there at a later stage as from what people have told me the audience really enjoyed it. I love working with David that creative freedom he gives you is hard to find when your a performer.
In the mean time I'm going to practice some more positions.

CHECK THIS OUT!

Up and coming Artist HOLLY REVELL has joined forces with The HOT AUGUST FRINGE @RVT and will be there this Friday 30th July doing her LIGHT PAINTING. Having spent a few day in the studio with her doing this i insist that this is something that you will not want to miss. She will have a darkroom style booth up stairs at the RVT where in groups or on your own you can get a light painting picture shot by her of you for a donation of just £5.
I strongly recommend that you go the full nine yards and get undressed for her, its been one of the most liberating naked experiences i have had.
With a long exposure set on the camera she draws light over you with a simple torch. The vulnerability and liberation that you fell as she focuses in onto different areas of your body lighting it for the camera is immense. I came out of this shoot feeling totally connected with Holly something that a quick snap has never made me feel. My connection with the photographer has always been over time and a different number of shoots. But to have one picture taken that takes about 2 to 3 minutes to produce that bonds you so close to the producer is amazing.
