Ahh, painting from life.




To paint another human being from life is one of the greatest joys I've found. I often paint these in my studio but these were painted at The Palette And Chisel in Chicago.

The two horizontals are 8 " high by 16 " wide and the vertical is 40 " high by 30 " wide. All are oil on linen and done in one session. The 30 by 40 is actually done in 2 hours because the model change her mind about being able to hold the first pose. That's part of painting from life, the curve balls.
