Things you may want to know before the party
Below are some questions that many people ask before or after they’ve booked a party
What exactly is a Cheeky Party?
A Cheeky Party is life drawing — just with a lot more laughter, a lot less pressure, and considerably fewer rules than your average art class.
At the centre of the fun is your fully nude male model, ready to strike poses ranging from the timelessly artistic to the slightly more daring, depending entirely on the mood of your group. Yes, you get to help choose the poses yourselves — whether you keep things classically tasteful or decide to let the evening wander into more mischievous territory is completely up to you. Let’s just say this is life drawing in the truest sense of the phrase.
No artistic experience is needed whatsoever. Draw a masterpiece, sketch a stick figure, or focus your attention on a particularly eye-catching detail — there is absolutely no judgement here. Along the way, there will be a selection of fun games and cheeky challenges, tailored to suit your group’s vibe, from light-hearted and playful to a little more outrageously memorable if that is what you are after.
Everything can be discussed beforehand so everyone knows exactly what to expect, and to round off the party, you will even have the opportunity to paint directly onto the model’s skin — because every great artist deserves a very unusual canvas.
Unforgettable, slightly outrageous, and guaranteed to get people talking long after the party ends.
In a word: yes. This is life drawing, after all, so your model will be fully nude (with the possible exception of glasses, if eyesight insists). While we appreciate that some guests arrive wondering “surely there’s a strategically placed towel?”, rest assured — what you are signing up for is the full life drawing experience. Artistic, cheeky, and occasionally a little blush-inducing.
Do I have to be able to draw?
Absolutely not. A Cheeky Party is about having fun, sharing laughs, and trying something a little different — not producing gallery-worthy artwork (unless hidden artistic genius suddenly strikes).
Some guests proudly create what can only be described as an enthusiastic stick figure, while others channel their inner Renaissance artist. And for those who prefer to focus on a single particularly attention-grabbing feature rather than the whole model… that is entirely your prerogative. No one is judging, no one is marking your work, and there will definitely be no detention for questionable proportions. If you can hold a pencil, you can join in.
Can we take photographs / videos?
Of course — it is your party, and naturally you will want a few memorable moments captured along the way. We are perfectly happy for guests to take photographs and videos, whether that is for the “what happens at the hen party…” group chat or something a little more frame-worthy. While social-media-friendly snaps are often the order of the day, we do understand that occasionally guests may wish to capture the full artistic composition. We simply ask that everyone remains respectful and mindful of the group.
Does he talk/chat while we’re drawing him?
Yes — absolutely. This is a party, not a silent art gallery, and your model is there to help create a relaxed, fun atmosphere. He is more than happy to chat, answer questions, join in the laughter, and help put everyone at ease while striking a pose or two. Of course, if your group would prefer a quieter, more traditional drawing experience, he can happily keep conversation to a minimum. The vibe is entirely up to you.
Do I have to join in the games?
Not at all. There is zero pressure to participate in any games or activities if they are not your thing. Whether you want to throw yourself enthusiastically into every challenge, quietly sketch from the sidelines, or simply enjoy the spectacle with a glass in hand, that is completely fine. The aim is for everyone to feel relaxed, comfortable, and entertained — at your own pace and entirely within your comfort zone.
If we pick the poses are there any limits?
In short: yes… and no.
Yes — the poses are very much your choice. It is your party, and your model is there to help create the atmosphere and experience your group wants, whether that leans towards classical life drawing or something with a little more cheek and personality.
That said, there are a couple of practical considerations. The model is impressively talented, but sadly not superhuman, so poses should be comfortable enough to hold for around five minutes without requiring Olympic-level flexibility. Poses are also designed to feature the model only — this is life drawing, not acrobatics.
Over the years, guests have requested everything from wonderfully traditional artistic poses to ideas that have clearly been inspired by a second glass of prosecco and a vivid imagination. If the model can safely and comfortably make it happen, he will happily give it a go — so feel free to let your creativity run a little wild.
Usually, no; but like most things in life, it depends on the mood of the room, the tone of the party, and the kind of experience your group is looking for. These details can always be discussed beforehand so the atmosphere is pitched exactly as you would like it — playful, artistic, cheeky, or somewhere delightfully in-between.
During the party, there is often a game where guests can anonymously suggest poses, and occasionally those ideas drift into slightly more adventurous territory. It is all very light-hearted and entirely guided by the group — if some guests would rather keep things more classical, that is absolutely respected. Your party, your comfort level, your choice.
And, in the interests of honesty: sometimes the male anatomy has a mind of its own and does not always follow a carefully planned schedule.
Can we touch him?
In certain games, yes — if you choose to take part. Some activities may involve light, respectful interaction, but participation is always optional and comfort is key for everyone involved. The golden rule? Remember he is a real human being, not a museum exhibit — so gentle hands and good manners go a long way.
Are we allowed to drink alcohol during a party?
Absolutely — for many groups, a glass of prosecco (or three) is very much part of the experience. While the model remains professionally sober, guests are more than welcome to enjoy a drink and settle into the fun. After all, life drawing tends to become considerably more creative once everyone relaxes a little.
As with any good party, moderation is encouraged — nobody wants to peak too early before the best poses make an appearance. Some groups even like to add a light-hearted drinking element to the games, and we are always happy to go with the flow and match the energy of your party.
Do we get naked?
In short: no, absolutely not.
A Cheeky Party is about enjoying yourselves in whatever way feels comfortable for your group — and normally that involves keeping your own clothes firmly on while someone else bravely does all the hard work. That said, if anyone feels unexpectedly inspired by the artistic atmosphere, that is entirely your decision. We are not here to judge.
At the end of the party we get to paint the model; how does that work and are there any limitations?
One of the highlights of the party is the chance to turn your model into a living masterpiece.
At the end of the session, the model will provide skin-safe body paints, and you are invited to paint directly onto his body using brushes, fingers, or whatever artistic technique your inner creative genius demands. A protective sheet is laid down because, as experience has taught us, enthusiasm occasionally travels further than expected.
Depending on group size, body painting is usually done in small turns — around 3 to 5 guests at a time tends to work best, unless accidental elbow battles are part of your artistic process.
As for limitations: the only real rule is that painting stays from the neck down. Beyond that, creativity is very much encouraged. Some groups go for abstract masterpieces, some choose themes, and others become unexpectedly fascinated by ensuring every last detail receives suitable artistic attention. However refined, ridiculous, or wonderfully imaginative your group wishes to be, the canvas is yours.
Is there anything else we should have asked?
Probably — but the good news is, it is your party and the experience is very much shaped around your group.
Whether you are after a relaxed evening of drawing a fully nude male model in a more traditional life drawing style, or something a little more interactive with games, laughter, and plenty of cheeky moments, the choice is entirely yours. You can repeat favourite games, skip anything that is not quite your style, swap activities as you go, or even throw new ideas into the mix on the night. Think of it less as a formal class and more as an experience that evolves with the mood of the room.
As for the model — what you see depends entirely on the tone your group wants to set. Some parties keep things delightfully artistic and classical, while others become a touch more adventurous as confidence — and prosecco — begin to flow. If your group requests poses that are a little more daring, these can often be accommodated, provided everyone is comfortable and expectations are discussed beforehand.
Every group is different, which is exactly what makes a Cheeky Party fun.
If you are interested in booking, simply send a message and we can chat through your requirements. Together we can tailor the games and atmosphere to suit your group — whether your guests lean more towards “tastefully reserved” or “absolutely no surprises left by dessert.” Having hosted parties across the entire spectrum, very little comes as a surprise anymore.
If there are any other questions, concerns, or ideas please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I can also send you details of each game before your party so you can decide which you want to include or exclude.
Enjoy your Cheeky Party
