Voodoo Life Drawing

Last night I went to a very different and special Life Drawing session in Angel, London. It was themed as Voodoo/Hoodoo, to mark the death of an old Voodoo Queen called Marie Laveau, popular in New Orleans many many year ago.

The class was really cool, with a small stage set up with bones, skulls, voodoo dolls, etc and the model was dressed up at Marie and acted as though we were contacting her from beyond the grave! 

Then after Marie, we had another model who was dressed a Haiti Hoodoo Princess. Both awesome models and great costumes! 

This is why I love living in London!

Hopefully Ill find time to take one of these into PS and make proper characters from them!
