One of the most loved and hated days in art school is the day when models come.

Some students (though not many) like these lessons because they have the opportunity to capture a person from life, every quirk, flaw and peculiarity. And others don’t like this day because for them drawing from life is “too difficult” and boring. To each his own.

Today, a former captain, an honorary member of the SAS, Jonathan Price, came to school. Although no one had the slightest idea how he ended up here, the students were very happy to meet a new person.

There were very few students in the room. Third year, what did you expect? But each of them was almost a master, doing a good job of the new work from life.

A short greeting, a very meager introduction, before the man sat down at the table, took off his army shirt and, under the sensitive guidance of the teacher, assumed a more "natural" pose. The future artists feverishly set to work. Including you.

I wanted to praise the guys for their work, but they all ran away for a break. I don't want to be intrusive. No one took advantage of professionalism
