It is difficult to get a good picture of this painting because of the glare. So I shot this sideways. I would say I have about 6 more hours on it. Hand, arms, feet and a little work on her face. Very close to being finished. Will post the final when I am.

                                                              Getting close to being done.

This is the beginning of Madison. She is one of my very favorite models. Something of her bone structure says "classicism" to me. I can see her translated in a draped gown into some Grecian or Romanesque mythical goddess. yep, that is what I see in her.

When I talk to her, her eyes dart with intelligence. She is bright and shiny but yet she is still at the same time.  I think she is the bomb.

Let's see if I can pull this off over the next few weeks.

I might do a little more work on this if I get a chance. So much to tend to in this picture. Lots of textures and patterns. Very complex. Cleve was a good model.

I grew up seeing a big painting of my four cousins painted in the early 1960's by Austrian

Artist Anton Vorauer. His style influenced me from the get go ( I mean really early, like say birth)
. Here  is a detail/sneak peek of  the Twins. A commission portrait underway.  Oil on linen

I was able to paint a small alla prima of Chelsea's head and shoulders in the last two hours of class

this is oil on panel and I think it is 8x10"

I don't think she looks much different from last week. She is a little cleaner, tighter, and her head will get a little work next week for about an hour and then I will do another alla prima.  Oil on panel Dancer Resting
