Strike A Pose: Become a Fine Arts Model

 Registration is closed for this event
Did you know that there are opportunities in the Boulder-Denver Metro Area to work as an Artist’s Model?  Artists regularly employ models of all body colors, genders, ages, shapes and sizes for portraits and for nude, draped, costumed & clothed figure modeling. This workshop is an introduction to Fine Arts Modeling. 

Presenter, Ellen Allen, a Boulder artist and Founder of Art of Modeling, will cover terminology, types of modeling, what kind of venues and artists to expect, types of poses, sets & props, how to prepare beforehand, what to bring, etiquette for models & artists, pro tips and more.  Also included will be a mini modeling demonstration by a seasoned professional figure model, the opportunity to try clothed posing out for yourself, and time for questions. Take home supplementary handouts and a free gift for your future model bag.  Upon completion you will be well-informed and prepared to begin fine arts modeling.

Must be age 18 to attend.

Note: This workshop is a repeat of the one offered in April of this year.

Pre-Registration is required. You are welcome to bring a bag lunch. Snacks will be provided.
BCAA members/ $30, non-members /$35.

Filling a gap in our thriving arts community, Art of Modeling provides:

  • Fine arts model booking services
  • Quarterly fine arts model training workshops
  • Quarterly figure drawing marathons
  • Bi-annual art gallery exhibitions/sales opportunities
  • An unofficial association of fine arts models in the Boulder/Denver Area

Art of Modeling was founded in January 2019 by Ellen Allen, an award-winning artist with a formal arts training from Pratt Institute in NY, NY.  Ellen was a sought after professional fine arts model in the San Francisco Bay/Central Coast area whose experiences in both the roles of an artist and of a fine arts model lend her a unique perspective from which to serve and to set an example of best practices in fine arts model training.
