I'm a very left-brain centered guy trying to unleash his right-brain a little through art. My ultimate goal is to be able to create pin-up art ala Vargas or Elvgren or Olivia.
Pin-up art, building models
Pencil for drawing, oil painting for figures. Still learning oils for real picture painting...
Almost none - I've read some books on drawing and done OK with draw inanimate objects, failed about half the time on faces, and utterly at figures. All I want is a chance to work with folsk who know more than I.
Just my ongoing learning process, and trying to suppress my left-brain's need to quantify everything the right-brain wants to do.
Building models (airplanes, cars, figures), pre-historic anthropology, quantum mechanics, computer programming
The sheer variety of locations, times, days, dates for Meetups this group offers is appealing - if I can't make an afternoon session, there will be a morning or weekend session coming soon.

Welcome, Jon! I'm glad you could join us. I want to invite you to check out the message board and the article about Gestalt Theory and the arts. If you feel like posting on the boards I could really use you help getting that off the ground. My hope is that we can use this site as a forum and a place to bounce ideas around. If you have work you'd like to post as well please do and I'd be happy to offer critique or feedback . If you're interested in taking a class or a lesson, please let me know!
