I recently discovered through my good friend Christine that the Museum of Fine Arts has free live model drawing on Wednesday nights. How convenient, since Wednesdays are free (with a donation requested...)
It is held in different spots throughout the museum each week, which I think is great! I've added some of my sketches here...now, keep in mind I haven't sketched live models since probably art school, and that was AWHILE ago!
I arrived early so was also able to catch the Durer exhibit, fantastic prints! Also, I viewed the "Bharat Ratna" Jewels of Modern India exhibit, Toulouse Lautrec's "Cafe and Cabaret" and the Luis Melendez exhibit, which was *amazing*...although it made me hungry! I've added the Globe review of the Melendez show after this post. I also wandered around checking out all the new parts of the Museum, and some old favorites. We were evacuated at one point, so I was also able to experience the Babyheads out back. They are VERY cool! I wasn't able to snap a picture though, we had to BACK AWAY FROM THE BUILDING!
All in all it was a fun night, I will definitely go back, and cudos to the MFA for offering this as well as free supplies should people need them.
I love this city!
