About this tour
Sit for a live portrait session in France where an artist captures your likeness over 90 minutes. You set the pose—clothed, partially draped, or nude, whatever feels right—and choose your medium from pencil to sanguine and canvas size. It's unrushed time to be observed and rendered, with tea or coffee on hand. No artistic experience needed; the focus is on you as subject, not performer.
Highlights
- Choose your own pose and comfort level throughout
- Select from pencil, sanguine, charcoal, or other mediums
- Canvas sizes: 50x65cm or smaller formats available
- Complimentary tea and coffee during session
- Suitable for all fitness levels and body types
What to expect
You'll arrive and settle into a private studio space. After a brief chat about what you're comfortable with, you'll adopt a pose—the artist may suggest positions if you'd like guidance, but the choice stays yours. Once you're settled, the drawing begins. You can shift slightly if needed, but aim to hold the pose for continuity. The artist works steadily while you relax, sip your drink, think, or simply be present. At the end, you'll see the finished portrait and discuss the process if you wish.
Good to know
Book in advance to secure your session time. The studio is accessible by public transport. Wear layers if you're nervous—you can remove them once comfortable. Bring any specific pose ideas if you have them. The finished artwork is yours to take home.
