Connections
I have been running the life drawing group for years, and over time, collected hundreds of large, quick figure sketches—my favorites were always the 3-minute poses. These drawings accumulated in my studio, each one a fleeting moment captured in charcoal and pencil.
I’ve always understood the power of community: engaging with like-minded people, feeling supported, and growing together.
So, I made an offer—any artist who wanted to experiment was welcome to use my drawings as a starting point. “Do whatever you like,” I said. “Experiment, express yourself, try something new, take a chance.”
What came back was extraordinary.
Each artist brought their own voice, vision, and style. The returned artworks are as diverse and unique as the artists who created them. They demanded to be shared.
We invite you to come experience the show—find a connection, join our community, and engage with the art. We can’t wait to show you what we’ve created. * Diane *
