Live Model Study Workshop – One
– 6th May 2018.
Our first ever Live model study workshop, hosted on 6th May 2018, at our own institution Anthelion School of Art, turned out to be a unique and successful endeavor to give our students different experience than their everyday experience of classes here.
Guided by one of our senior artist and mentor Mr. Anjan Bhattacharya, the participants explored their artistic talents on canvas and papers. Our model, Miss Amita Ghosh, sat for about 5 hours, in slots of 25 minutes each, while the participants painted her using mediums such as pencil, charcoal, watercolour and acrylic paint.
The experience was one of a kind and new to many of the participants, who loved this opportunity. It left them wanting more, many requesting such events to be organized regularly.
As a testament of their true talents, the participants created beautiful pieces of art, each unique and extraordinary on its own. The success of this workshop was proof of what can be achieved if the students are given enough freedom to practice their own imagination while training for such a delicate subject like fine arts. The Anthelion school of art has been working towards creating such an environment, where students, whether aged eight or eighty, can practice their passion of fine arts and painting in a liberal atmosphere. Along with that, our institution tries to give them experiences such as this workshop, which helps them to enhance their talents.
