48 Blocks Virtual Life Drawing project

Speaking of life drawing… look what I just came across.

48 Blocks – 2020 (the virtual one) is online!

I’m a little late to the ((viewing)) party here but there is some interesting creative content to watch. I love how this event can be binge-watched.

Warm up drawings

15 min Life Drawing - Arts Garage Art Club life drawing group, March 11, 2021

For the first time in over a year, I got to attend a life drawing group in person. From 8-9 pm at the Arts Garage in Atlantic City, artists gathered for life drawing in real life.

Art Club‘s been meeting virtually but last night, they held a hybrid drawing session. There was a camera set up for the Zoom meeting, which was displayed on a flat screen TV in view. I wore a mask and the spacious area left plenty of room to sprawl out. It felt so good to draw with people again and all the artists in attendance were friendly.

I’m always on the lookout for more drawing sessions, especially as more and more people get vaccinated. Please let me know if you hear of any more.

Art Club is hosting another hybrid session on April 8, if you want to get in on it too.

I purchased a ticket for last night’s event on eventbrite.

If you have a few minutes, you’re welcome to peruse some more of my life drawing posts from over the years.

Snow quiet

Saltwater Veins. 18x24" Oil on Canvas. 2021. Jodee Clifford — Saltwater Veins. 18×24″ Oil on Canvas. 2021

I’ve been quiet like next day snow… even though we dodged most of the cold stuff here at southern coastal New Jersey.

Black & White Mono-prints

In Progress

New Year, new paints coming someday. Hopefully.

There are 3 48×60 heavy duty stretcher bar frames and a rolled up painting in the freshly painted hallway. Canvas and paint, coming soon.

Showing

B&W Show at the RRCArts in Millville up through March 13. I have two pieces in the group show that have never been shown. I recently framed the whole series in wildly reflective frames. I would really like to show them all together someday.

Shooting Star Cluster, Target Monoprint

Values, transformation, weird, materials, unintended consequences, invasion of privacy, power, control, revelations. These are still themes inspiring me.
