Guys if anyone still lives in the UK I'm going to be drawing the statues in The Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool tomorrow, aka, the 7th. I would have given more warning, but I only just decided to go. If anyone wants to meet me there or try meeting up in the future I thought it might be a good place to start? Over and Out!

Hey guys, long time. I thought I'd resurrect this thread with a plug for a friend of mine, Rebecca Molloy, who has a show this weekend in London. She does figurative work which I find really impressive. Here's a link to some of her work and the details on the show:

I would like to invite you to the Private View of my solo show on January 18th, 7-9pm at the cueB Gallery, Brockley, London.

At the beginning of February 2012, I embarked on a project to explore the role of the body within my paintings. The show, entitled ‘Three’, is centred around the interaction of three life models and invites you to look at the female form in a new light. No longer do we gaze at the figure from a far, instead these paintings draw you into observing the weight of arms in relation to another, the bodies stretching, moving and being still. The complexities and subtleties of the human form are displayed all at once. The outcome is that the paintings have a life of their own, so that they become a vivid and altered version of the original imagery.

The show runs until the 17th February.

Hey guys, I was just curious as to whether there are any uk meet-ups arranged? or alternatively, I am fairly close to Manchester/Birmingham if there are any locals on here.

Not that I know of, there's a Facebook group but it has been equally quiet: http://www.facebook.com/groups/31947752960/
I do believe that some of the London users get together on some sort of regular basis on Fridays after life drawing.
