Friday drawing sessions with a nude model


Every week, we gather to study the human form through quick nude sketches. Each pose lasts from 2 to 12 minutes, helping to train your eye, refine your technique, and appreciate the beauty of every body. These sketches become not only a valuable artistic exercise but also an incredible resource for future painting projects.

Our models are contemporary dancers, actors, professional models, and plus-size models. Their unique energy, movement, and charisma make each session an inspiring creative experience.

We encourage artistic freedom—use pencils, ink, pastels, pens, watercolor, gouache, or even collage. You can work at a table or an easel, whichever suits your style.
This is more than just drawing—it’s a meditative practice that enhances observation skills, calms the mind, and unlocks your creative potential. Join us!

You can attend a course of four sessions for a discounted price 32000 HUF, or one session is 9000 HUF.
