The Art Department needs more models for this program, and would appreciate people of all ages, sizes and genders. The biggest problem we have is that most of our models are women in their twenties who would be considered attractive in most contexts. We want people of a variety of ages and statures, and we need males - who tend to be more reluctant to apply. We particularly like pregnant women, whose form is the ultimate challenge in figure drawing. Modeling for art sessions is not a high stress job.
People are friendly and informal, and the evening is very relaxed.
Typically there are only seven or eight artists, and they go to great lengths to make the model comfortable, according to Sears. The art faculty and the open sessions coordinators call people from the list. However, by some strange twist, beginners often make excellent models and we do not look for experienced people to model for us. BE Lands Track on Daytime's No. All Rights Reserved.
