An experienced model for the past 9 years, Shirley has mentioned that she does not feel awkward being naked in front of people. She has also mentioned that as an artist, she uses her body as her tool.
According to Shirley, “the only criteria to be a nude model is to be confident in your own skin”.
Recollecting back to the first time Shirley did nude modelling, it had already occurred to her that she would be in the presence of multiple artists. Artists who are beginners, retired, and even those with have full time jobs.
During the breaks in the Nude Life Model drawing session, the model would walk around and look at the many artists’ works. The model would interact with the participants whilst they enquire her about the shading and tones, as well as compliment their works.

Students perfecting their artworks (highlights and shadows)
A professional artist will be present to guide you in capturing the beauty of the human figure. So do not worry if you’re a beginner, everybody has to start somewhere!
Throughout the 2.5 hours Nude Life Drawing workshop, you will learn the basics of human figure drawing, capturing the beauty of the human figure. There will be several short and long poses made by the model. So don’t blink as you capture their every motion, shade, tone, skin texture and gesture of the model with your own interpretations.
A nude life model is beneficial for those who are constantly drawing figures, because the presence of a life model allows you to understand the tones and shadings of a human body.

In the Batik Introduction Handkerchief Painting workshop, participants will learn the traditional art of batik, a wax-resist dyeing technique originating from Indonesia. The workshop begins with a brief history and overview of batik, highlighting its cultural significance and various techniques. Participants will then observe a demonstration of applying wax with tjanting tools and dyeing the fabric. Following the demonstration, each participant will design and create their own batik handkerchief, applying wax to create patterns and then dyeing their fabric.
