Life Photo-sets: Pietà (Arthur & Lilith)

Added 2022-07-22 09:01:01 +0000 UTC

Since moving to Brighton last year both Lilith and Arthur have become a core part of team of life models, while Lilith has become a regular at the drawing sessions themselves. We were really keen to induct them into the Patreon, where their monthly income from your payment will help to support their performance work, music and life modelling as well as giving us all the opportunity to draw from their amazing poses. This particular set of poses took Michelangelo's Pietà as a starting point, riffing off the visual theme in chair-based poses, then in sculpture rotations and giving us the opportunity to draw from dual poses that are much harder to sustain in a life class. You can find more about Lilith and Arthur below the contact sheets.
