Title: First session
Tags:
Blog Entry: Hi all, I just thought I would write a bit about my first experience of life modelling. I got the job through Life Art, which was great. An artist on here asked me to sit for a private session, which to me seemed like the ideal chance to try it and see if I was any good.  I informed him I had no experience, but he put me at ease and said he would help with poses.  I arrived and was probably visibly nervous but I was made to feel very welcome. We did the session in his bright naturally lit conservatory (with the blinds closed!) which was nice and warm. In total we did three 20 minute poses, two sitting and one standing.  It was a great, gentle introduction to it and hopefully now I will go on and sit for him again and other life classes.
