Artists are invited to life drawing sessions at the new New West Artists/Royal City Arts Alliance gallery on 12th Street.

Artists in the city are invited to drop in for life drawing sessions at the new Royal City Arts Alliance gallery.

The New West Artists/Royal City Arts Alliance gallery, which started as a Christmas pop-up shop before the holidays, is continuing in its premises next door to Renaissance Books at 712C 12th St.

On Wednesday afternoons, artists can drop in from 1 to 3 p.m. for life drawing, at a cost of only $2.

Artists may use each other as models, set up still life sessions or hire models for sessions. An email about the sessions says artists should bring whatever they like to use: hard and soft charcoal sticks, graphite and charcoal pencils, low-cost non-archival paper such as newsprint, a portable easel (if they have one) or just a simple sketchbook and pencil.

The session are hosted by Lavana La Brey. Anyone who wants to attend can call 604-525-4566 or email lavanalabrey6@gmail.com.
