Erotic drawing for naked men
A unique opportunity to strip down and connect with other dudes.
Life drawing sounds kind of sexy - a naked model and everyone looking at them and drawing their body. But the reality of a traditional life drawing class is that it often feels a bit clinical, almost medical - the body becomes desexualised as you examine it from every angle and try to translate its curves and angles onto your paper.
But what would happen if everyone in the room was naked? Not just the model, but the men drawing him as well. What would that feel like? How would that shape the creative process? What if we allowed ourselves to lean into the sexual energy available to us in a room full of naked men?
That's what we're exploring in our erotic drawing sessions.
Suitable for artists at all levels, but particularly welcoming to beginners and amateurs, this isn't a formal class - it's a self-directed opportunity to practice drawing the human body while also admiring a naked model and a room full of naked men.
Getting together with a group of men and getting naked has value in and of itself, but how does our nudity shape our relationship to the model and the drawings that we're creating? How does the sexual energy of a room full of naked men inform the creative energy that we're tapping into?
