Workshop Discoveries

I am very excited about all the 

discoveries that were made in 

The Figure workshop on Saturday! 

Mine included! 

First I did a demo from a photo, using the 

same "One Hour" approach I use with still life. 

Then I gave each of them one of my photos of

"figures in the sunlight" to use as a reference.

These are just two samples of some of the starts.

In the afternoon we started with 10 minute 

"two value" studies using a model

Then we all painted 20 minute poses with the model seated. 

My first 20 minute.

It's hard to get the proportions correct when working that fast. 

It's a real challenge, but such fun!   

The model was fantastic! 

A great big thank you to all the gals who attended, 

especially the two that drove down from the North Shore!
