I love teaching figure drawing to fourth graders. Maybe because it's one of my favorites. But also because they're just the right age- old enough to be successful with it, but not old enough to be too self conscious about the whole thing.
My 4th graders practiced figurative gesture drawings and they had one minute for each drawing. The model switched poses every minute and we switched models every three poses, so the pace was fast!

Many artists (from the past and current) used models to create realistic images.
How do you think it would feel to work as a model for an artist?
