Artists'Mode/ArtTutorLifefordrawing

20


20 per session - Virtual OK - Posted Aug 17, 2017

I will be your Artists' Model for a Life Drawing session. I will be your drawing coach at the same time if you need help. Details to be discussed. As an artist I know how difficult it is to get a private session with someone who understands how to remain motionless and not to move when an artist is building a scene or sketching a pose for a more detailed work. Can do this in person if you are Montreal or Ottawa area, or on line if you can stream to your big screen T.V. with your PC or laptop. We can figure it out. I have excellent hair to be left down and slightly wavy for interesting lines or put up for a classical pose. You can do quick poses, or long poses depending of your artist needs. If you want to do a portrait that is fine too. I am located in a very interesting area in Hochelaga near Viau metro and there are plenty areas to do that are visually interesting for drawing or painting a plein d'air. I can coach you in painting, or drawing while I pose. I have been at this for 4 decades. I can teach you how to really see and trick your brain into really understanding what you are drawing or looking at, instead of drawing what you are supposed to see. Drawing is a focusing technique after all. I believe that everyone is capable of drawing. You just have to learn this say to see, this focusing technique. 20 Simbi per session unit which is 10 minutes. Happy to trade for help with languages. Maybe even do it at the same time!

Training & Qualifications


I am qualified because I have spend many hours over the years sketching Artists Models and have an inside knowledge of what is needed. My family member has been an artists model for years, and has taught me what is necessary from her professional point of view, to be the model too. I am a great deal for someone that wants to practice doing a character model. I am a senior, with interesting hair for line and contour, and have expression due to age and lines on my hands and face. I can be physically present if you are in Montreal or Ottawa and my timing if flexible as I am a self-employed stone carver who can be available when needed.

Availability & Preferences


Free any time as per discussion

Trading Preference: I’m flexible, just hit me up!

Susan is an incredible artist. She created a stone carving from a sketch she did and the work is exquisitely detailed. I had a great time meeting her ...and seeing her studio, as well as picking out a stone. I would recommend Susan's art to anyone. Thank you so much! show more

About Susan Conner

Hey there. I have been trading and bartering for 26 years as a free-lance sculptor in stone and painter. This Simbi program is a wonderful extension of what artists have been doing since the dawn of... time. It is in my opinion a sacred exchange which I am always grateful for. I am pleased to join this community. My work comes from a place of pathworking, and also from decades of professional experience. Lets grow together in this astral community of trust and love. Regarding my extant paintings: I am looking for an appropriate venue to trade my large number of paintings for language studies, primarily. I will be posting photos of these paintings that I have created over the years. I feel that I can start creating again in oil paint if I can find loving homes for these works on canvas. Like puppies or kittens born in my home, I want to find the right home for these treasures of mine. As a painter I need to do this to continue my evolution in 2Dimensional expression in color. Regarding my commissioned artwork: I truly enjoy sketching, painting and creating by pencil, paint-brush and all other modes of transportation of the image, symbol and concept across a page for your use. I have the ability to work with you, co-create with you, and perform in any style including portraiture. Just Ask Me. Regarding my Mothering 101: I have so much experience which I wish to share. I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly, but mostly the great, the beautiful and the ultimate in joy coming from the journey of parenting. What an honour it is to share this with anyone who asks. Regarding my stone carving business: Quotes from my Site regarding the stone carvings: Welcome to the home of Conner Bernett Stone. Susan Conner worsk in the most ancient of media, creating decorative art for both corporate clients and individual art lovers. Susan loves to do custom work. You can find us at Art Markets in Montreal, Canada or at our other venues such as By Ward Market, Ottawa, and Fine Juried Art shows all over North America. Images “Drawn from Stone” to last for generations to come. Unique Works of Everlasting Art Every piece is one of a kind, carved from the most beautiful stone including granite, limestone, labradorite, quartz, and marble. You can display our works of art indoors or outdoors, and be assured that they will look striking in all weather, and under both natural and artificial lighting. You’re Invited to Connect With Conner Bernett Stone Contact us any time to ask about our work or to arrange for a custom piece. Stone Bas-relief carving – each one unique. Connecting with the client, so that the client connects with the piece. Envision a symbol of your company’s identity carved out of stone – your business’s spirit through your company’s logo in granite. My sculptures are always researched, designed and executed by me, and I am proud to declare them as the culmination of 25 years of stone artistry. The stone whispers its stories to me and I co-create with Nature. My work is both Fine Art and Poetry, as it presents its pure healing energy – light extending out from natural quarried rocks, and the quest of the imagination that collaborates with it. I am always open to new concepts and motifs, but also enjoy perfecting vintage images, as they evolve and flux with my personal and spiritual evolution. The path is the goal in stone carving. That includes connecting with the client, so that the client connects with the piece. We begin with a highly polished stone slab chosen for its color and beauty. We break it up manually into different sizes; each piece formed from the stones’ natural inclusions and veins. How do I execute my designs? I cover the stone with a protective sketching surface. Drawing on the design with a pencil, the next step is to hand-cut the areas out, exposing the stone surface that we want to sand away. This process is done free-hand with total artistic license to create as we work. When the larger massed out areas have been carved deeply into the stone, we remove our protective material, and using a diamond–tipped dremel, the finely etched details are added. This also is done freely. The result is always uniquely one-of- a-kind. show more
