De Chile al Mundo: ¿qué pasa en Australia?

Landscape Art Class in Stanley Street

The day dawned with showers and overcast yet by 10 o'clock the sun was out although the air was a little chilly. We headed down toward Stanley Street seeking a place that was out of the wind and pleasant for drawing. We needn't have worried, it was delightful sitting in the cafes and drawing the people as they relaxed and enjoyed the morning sunshine.

There are numerous outdoor cafes like this in this area and as can be seen by the name of this particular establishment, the atmosphere is welcoming to artists. As we sipped our coffees and hot chocolates, our little art class became just another part of the passing parade.

Welcome To The Studio
This is where it all happens on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings at East Sydney Academy of Art for life drawing. A somewhat different experience to other life drawing groups, here the classes are accompanied by chilled jazz, an art appreciation talk and an intimate studio where artists are up close to the model.

Loosely based on the studio of Leonardo da Vinci, it follows the advice of Leonardo that a studio should be filled with a sensuous mixture of art, music and discussion. Several of the artists enjoy a red wine while they draw and all participate in the friendly mood of the drawing space.

The intimacy also stems from the size of the space, it is within a metre each way the ideal size for a studio as recorded by Leonardo in his note books. He said that small studio's breed discipline. He is right there, but what he did not say is that small studios also breed a special relationship between artists and models.

It is a pleasure to be part of such a long tradition and to benefit from such wise words.

I love the works of this landcaping office.
