Life Drawing Session 468 (female) GUY MÔQUET - Long pose
Sat, Jul 25, 9:00 AMJoin us for a long pose workshop with a female model, led by figurative artist John Kelly. The session consists of 45 minutes of drawing or painting, followed by a 15-minute break, and then another 45 minutes with the same pose. John will be present throughout the entire session to offer individual guidance on the principles of drawing and painting from life. If you prefer a more self-directed approach, you are welcome to work independently at any time. The workshop is suitable for both beginners and more experienced artists. It offers a supportive environment to develop your artistic style while exploring different aspects of academic drawing or painting, experimenting with new techniques, or refining compositional ideas. It's designed to guide your exploration of the human form through an anatomical lens while capturing the model's emotional presence. As always, posing for you are professional fine art models affiliated with the Beaux-Arts de Paris and other Parisian life drawing ateliers. Please bring your preferred art materials. All media are allowed, including pastels, ink, watercolor, or paint. If you need additional advice on materials, such as oil paints or watercolor paper, please don’t hesitate to contact John directly at jfkellydesign@gmail.com or send us a message. This session doesn't provide a basic drawing materials set. Once again, please remember to bring your own art supplies. **About John Kelly** Born in Paris and raised in New York, John studied at the School of Visual Arts before pursuing a career as an art director and oil painter. He employs traditional oil painting methods while also painting *alla prima*. Influenced by Balthus, Degas, and traditional Japanese prints, his figurative work explores the psychology of the model and the viewer’s gaze. For more details, visit John’s website: johnkellyart.com. We kindly ask everyone to RSVP to secure their spot. If you haven't booked, we reserve the right to deny participation if the session is full. For any questions about a specific session, feel free to contact us via Meetup or email your host / organizer at [deni@lifedrawingmontmartre.com](http://deni@lifedrawingmontmartre.com/) or [maria@lifedrawingmontmartre.com](http://maria@lifedrawingmontmartre.com/) **Early Bird Discount** If you book your spot at least 6 days before the session, you can enjoy a special early bird rate. After that, the regular price of €25 (excluding platform fees) applies to both untutored and instructed sessions.

Oil Painting Workshop with Artist John Kelly (materials included)
Sat, Jul 11, 9:00 AMJoin us for a figure painting from life and discover the timeless techniques of oil painting. Working from a professional nude model, you will learn how to: \- Use oil paints\, solvents\, and painting mediums \- Mix skin tones \- Use light and shadow to convey realism \- Capture the figure accurately from life The workshop is structured over two intensive days, combining demonstration, guided practice, and individual instruction to support your progress step by step. **Day 1 (11am–4pm)** Working alongside John, you will prepare your canvas and create an underpainting. You will then learn how to mix colours and use the fat-over-lean technique while establishing the main shapes and values of the composition. The workshop finishes with guidance on how to keep brushes clean and store your work. **Day 2 (11am–4pm)** You will continue refining your painting, focusing on finer details with the goal of bringing it toward completion. John will also give you advice on how to choose your own oil paints, brushes, and canvases. There is the option to continue working on your painting at home, as reference photos of the model will be available upon request. **Workshop Approach** This beginner-friendly workshop is taught step by step through live demonstrations and individual instruction, making it ideal for those new to oil painting as well as artists looking to refine their painting skills or explore a different way of working. Enjoy a friendly, supportive studio atmosphere designed to help you grow your art practice with confidence. All materials are included and easels are provided. We do, however, encourage participants to bring their favourite supplies whenever possible. If you prefer to paint using your own materials, please contact the tutor before booking your spot. The workshop is conducted in English. For questions, please contact John directly at jfkellydesign@gmail.com or at contact@lifedrawingmontmartre.com. **About the Tutor** Born in Paris and raised in New York, John studied at the School of Visual Arts before pursuing a career as an art director and oil painter.

I am looking forward to the amazing work we will do together.” – John Kelly **IMPORTANT:** We offer a full refund if you cancel at least one week before the workshop.
