We don't have a lot of time....on Alla Prima days. I come in late, mess around- chat a lot...generally have fun....because I LOVE this class and the teacher. Anyway, I am not making excuses, just sayin'--- these paintings are small for a reason.....

       What a wonderful model. I love my art friends and the situation- it is extraordinary.

The light in the kitchen is very cool and softened some of the skin tones from what it appears in person. This is Foreshortened nude oil on linen 18x24. One more week until complete.

ahhhh, I am finished with this painting. It feels good. I hope she likes it. I sure am gonna miss these two.

This is 18x24" oil  on oil primed board. Day one of three week pose. Very foreshortened stick I drew- last one to set up.....not much of a choice for beautiful poses. But with this model, it's hard not to get a good view.
