This group of Hens were completely surprised when I arrived to deliver their Life Drawing session. One of the girls had booked me and gathered all the girls into the living space of the big farm house they had rented for the weekend.
Once they were all seated I walked in and made big entrance. I introduced myself to the bride and said hello to everybody.
The girls produced some fantastic sketches using char coal and we did a range of different exercises to slow them to try different techniques
Non of them had any artistic background and they were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the sketches they produced.
We did long and short sketches to give the Hens a chance to work at different speeds, we also used non-dominant hand to draw some sketches and also some collaborations where they took it in turns to pass around each sketch and add a little each time.
I was with them for 90 minutes and it was a perfect amount of time to get into the flow.
The girls were from Bristol and a few of them even lived on the same street as me!
At the end we got a group photo and said our goodbyes.
