Photo-set teaser: October - December 2021 (Patreon)

Over the summer we've been sharing reference photos from the Lemonade photo-shoot, directed by Laura Ryan. Those photos are available for you to access as inspiration for your own personal projects and will be part of our pose-libabry indefinatly. You're always welcome to move up a tier to access more of the photos and move down again in future months - each contribution here on the Patreon helps us to pay the models ongoing royalties and to commission future photo shoots. As long as you stick to the terms of use laid out in the photo sets you can use the imagery however you like, cropping out details like hands or faces, combining multiple images together to draw or paint from and taking the imagery in your own preferred direction - the images are intended to be used as a source of inspiration and we always love to see where they have been taken once they are out of our hands! 

So what's next?
Over the next 3 months we're returning to the more conventional imagery of life drawing, portrait and clothed photo sets. We invited 6 new models to come to the Brighton Studio in April and we will be releasing all of their photo-sets over the next 9 months. You'll find a schedule for the next three months bellow, along with a couple of previous photos of each model's shoot for you to work from now. 

What about the future?
Our next guest art-director will be Jade Hylton, who will be inviting 5 new models to pose for a colourful set of clothed, life and portrait photos. Like the Lemonade series, these will be released across the Patreon Tiers over a three-month period, starting in 2022. 

Happy drawing,

Jake
