Daniel Maidman Sketches from the live nude at TheGreatNude Invitational

Daniel Maidman, one of TheGreatNude Invitational’s exhibiting artists, spent the weekend attending our drawing workshops with Sherry Camhy. Continuing his drawing marathon, Daniel joined our sketch party on Saturday night, and sketched from our two models that evening. We had a chance to ask Daniel some questions on his approach to drawing the figure.

Drawings by Daniel Maidman from the workshops at TheGreatNude Invitational are also available to view.
