THE WAC DRAWING GROUP

Wednesdays from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m.

The Drawing Group books models twice per month; on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays. A $5.00 donation per person will go directly to the model. We need a minimum of five (5) WAC members attending in order to have a model. In addition to live models we also draw from a still life set-up in the gallery area. In the large room, as we previ- ously have done when we don't have a model, we will continue to draw each other. We also will focus on dif- ferent ―body parts,‖ i.e., eyes, noses, etc. Questions, please call Roberta Greene at (928) 684-0959
