Model / Facilitator - Fra Beecher

1-day workshop

Sunday 28 June 2026, 10.30am - 3.30pm

An untutored life drawing session with life model and artist Fra Beecher. A chance to spend a day on two sustained drawings or paintings.

Fra will hold two poses, one in the morning and another in the afternoon. There will be short breaks every 30 minutes. Props and drapery will be used to create a scene around the figure. Both poses will be nude.

While this session is untutored, Fra will be happy to offer feedback during breaks from posing. 

Fra will also be facilitating an untutored short pose session on Sunday 28 April, where she will hold a range of poses throughout the day, starting with dynamic 30 second poses. After the lunch break there will be two poses, each an hour long.

Participants will have access to basic drawing media and paper. If you wish to do painting, please bring your own paints, brushes and surface on which to paint (some heavy weight cartridge paper will be available). Water pots and blue roll provided. Please bring an apron or wear clothes suitable for an art studio. Please bring a bag or portfolio for taking your work home at the end of the session.
