Spring '24 Teaser (Patreon)

As we tentatively edge into the Spring here in the UK we're introducing a little more colour into our Spring photo-set series with subtle greens and pops of colour reminiscent of the season working their way into Justyna Neryng's latest images. As well as a call back to the late stages of Frankie's pregnancy last year we're bringing the explicit symbolism of the Easter season into the sets, with an egg-festooned picnic and Tilli reprising the rabbit mask of last year's live life class. If you have any suggestions about themes you'd like to see explored in future photo-sets, let us know in the comments below! This summer we're excited to be welcoming some new models to our roster of Draw-supporter models, so watch this space for more details!

About the models

• Lilith (they/them) recently changed their name to Castor, although they retain Lilith as a performing pseudonym - you'll see them refered to as Castor from now on, but Lilith in past posts
• Wing Kei, organiser of ESEA Life Drawing in London, is back for a clothed photoset and life rotation
• Lucy is also back with some wonderful portrait poses in a wide array of etherial outfits
• Tilli (they/them) is  kicking off the spring season with a new life series
• Frankie presents her final pregnant photosets (she has now given brith to her lovely little bread roll of a babe)
