Twice the models, half the time! Today’s session at @thefigureroom was all about symmetry and speed ✍️ Drawing @14perscent and @ulypf in tandem forced me to look at the negative space between them just as much as the figures themselves
Delighted to announce Shay @14perscent will be joining us for the second-ever GDC EAST at Waverley Woollahra Art School @waverleyartschool next Thursday.
Expect the same warm, uncompetitive sessions you love at The Gladdy - with a coastal twist. We’ll be setting up in the round at the iconic art school on Bondi Road.
With your hosts @nonicee & @totalbore our brilliant roster of models, plus the same ice-cold hospitality from @chippolord and @younghenrys .
This is a limited seasonal run - don’t miss out!
Waverley Woollahra Art School, 138 Bondi Road
‘Lost In My Head’, 42x34x2cm, graphite and charcoal on paper, 2025.
Model: @14perscent
In this drawing, Shay sits on a metro train with his hand pressed to his head, caught in a moment of deep thought. The scene reflects the feeling of being at a crossroads, right before a difficult decision is made. Edward combines several photo references to sharpen the focus on Shay, leaving the train around him softer and less detailed. This contrast pulls all attention to Shay’s inner world, highlighting the weight of the moment. The work becomes a quiet reflection on choosing a path and the stillness that comes just before moving forward.
