what are the rules at a nude figure drawing class, apparently I'll be attending one wednesday cause it's the only time I can meet up w my friend and her partner while its in town, and y'all. I have scribbled and at times I might have even doodled, but I don't draw and certainly haven't drawn a nude person before. and any drawing class would've been anxiety inducing for me, especially as a setting for meeting a new person who seems super cool and who I'd like to make a good impression on, but this is just gonna be another level of uncomfortable for me ngl. would it be rude to bring a coloring book and some shitty crayola colored pencils while the ppl around me actually do the drawing they're there to do.

#this isnt even a 'oh i couldnt possibly be an artist' like i don't need to be told its ok for my stuff to suck cause it'll improve later #like i know my stuff will suck and thats fine. drawing just isnt an artistic pursuit i'm interested in or have an affinity for #i just dont know what is or isnt ok in that space. like i'd have a great time if i brought embroidery to do but like.#is that disrespectful to the model and/or the ppl drawing? does that change if i try to embroider the figure in question?#is this a talk in whispers situation. is this a ppl are concentrzting place. or is it like music playing socializing as you draw #idk maybe handling the uncomfy place/situation would be easier or less anxiety inducing if it wasnt combined w the anxiety that #comes from Meeting Important Person #i could do one or the other w only a little difficulty but both at the same time is sendinh my brain into freakout mode #samantha talks #fr tho artist mutuals/followers any advice here would be so appreciated
