Things to know
- There is no charge for the Monday sessions.
- You do not need to register. Just turn up!
- You don’t need any special materials - just draw with what you have to hand.
- Each pose is around 3-5 minutes, the length of a track of music.
-
The sessions are not recorded - you have to be there.
-
Chloë will always pose first to welcome everyone in to the space.
- There is no tuition - just the chance to draw each other, together.
-
Chloë will ask people who join the zoom to model for the group. It is absolutely OK to say no if you’re not feeling it on the day.
-
We ask that people respect the generosity of the space and all our sitters, and not take screenshots in the sessions.

Images From Monday Morning Portrait Sessions
Monday Mornings vol. 1 Publication
In 2022 I created a publication which contains drawings and text contributed by people who take part in the Monday sessions from all over the world.
With many thanks to all of the brilliant artists who join the portrait sessions, and who pose for us all to draw. You can see more of their work (and read about the sessions) in the Drawing Is Free Monday Mornings vol. 1 publication︎︎︎.
