You know, I think it is an age thing!

MY pitch would be a stack of life paintings, drawings, etc. The short gestural... oh, did you say with our without clothes? Leotards are great.

Show the group the need to observe the body in action. The ability to use the physical to show emotion. Demonstrate lighting that is NOT a triangle on the cheek. Show that the open give and take in a room which is different than a live model, should attract its own audience.

Let them understand that if it is run well, it will attract its own following. It is going to be one of the few times that artists can get together and observe each other, as well as the model. It is a social thing. It lets artists be artistic.

I am rabid about this. I looked for over 15 years for the ratty little bad part of town studios that I used to find out of art school. I crave drawing from life that inhales and exhales.

Wax poetic! It is the best time an artist can have!!
