The “Life Drawing Montmartre” (LDM) initiative offers life drawing sessions to professional and amateur artists in one of Paris’ most charming neighbourhoods – Montmartre.
In addition to weekly open workshops, LDM offers a range of private life drawing classes for groups, both tutored and untutored.
Our subjects are always professional life models, working for the Académie de la Grande Chaumière as well other Parisian art schools and ateliers.
As an art subject, the human figure is one of the oldest themes in the visual arts. While it is regarded as the most challenging, it is also the most satisfying of subjects to draw.
