On Thursday, March 8, the members of Studio 1482 will lead a lesson in observational drawing from a costumed model, Kika, at the Etsy labs in Brooklyn. The drawing event is promoting their new book, One Drawing A Day: A 6-Week Course Exploring Creativity With Illustration and Mixed Media, published by Quarry Books. You’ll also have an opportunity to purchase the book and have it signed by the illustrators of Studio 1482.

If you’ll be in the Brooklyn area, definitely stop by. We’d love to see you!

If you can’t make it to Brooklyn, Etsy will be live-streaming a demo by author Veronica Lawlor and interview with her and several of the Studio 1482 illustrators during the event. Visit the Etsy blog for more details.
