Life drawing series with RF. Alvarez
Lovers is a series of figure drawing sessions taught by artist RF. Alvarez, exploring the human form through light, structure, and storytelling – with a mezcal tasting to accompany.
An intimate, immersive evening of art making and mezcal tasting.
Each two-hour candlelit studio session will follow a classic academic structure:
1-minute gesture drawings to warm up
5-minute studies focusing on gesture, value, anatomy, and rhythm
A final 20-minute sustained pose for deeper observation
After the drawing sessions, guests are encouraged to linger and discuss their experience with others
Guests are provided all art-making materials as well as a selection of three mezcals curated by Alvarez to match the evening’s themes. Artists of all levels welcome.
The Sessions
Sessions are built around a central theme determining model choice, artistic focus, and mezcal selection.
The goddess of love and desire serves as inspiration for this session, featuring a single female model and focusing on curvature and line confidence.
Attendance to a session also includes an invitation to A Party for Lovers (a secret party with details to follow).
For the last session of the 2026 season, we are bringing back a crowd favorite, Dionysus – the god of wine, chaos and festivities. This will serve as both a festive cap to our journey together as artists, and a send-off to RF., who leaves for a residency in London for the rest of the year.
