photos of costumed models...BY PERMISSION


Here at last is our little blog of collected photos from various sessions with Costumed Models.
NOTA BENE!! WEDNESDAY WAS "PIRATE DAY", with Daniel, who does a fierce Pirate. We invited Everyone at school to wear Piratical gear ALL DAY, and maybe jump up onto the model stand during class to be with Daniel, get photographed or be 'drawn into the spirit' of the day...
PRIZES Were handed out to many pirates and wenches seen roaming the hallways, classes, offices, parking lots...that proclaimed the Pirate Ways. We even had a pirate song sung to us in Survey of Illustration class. Next week we're covering the art and biographies of the great Adventure illustrators of the early 20th century; the Originator of our very ideas of how Pirates looked...Howard Pyle, and his most famous student, N.C.Wyeth, among others.
We held the Narrative Figure class outdoors in 80 degree heat on The Common, with cars and bikes whoshing by and hollering piratically companionable stuff, while George Thompson waxed forth in the Gazebo beside us about the Tao of Art, and Judy Brown's painting class worked nearby.
