Seated man




Well, I finally got out on a Wednesday evening--first time in a long while--to go to the open studio at a nearby college. The model was too far away for me to paint a head (I am nearsighted but I can't seem to get the hang of bifocals) so I painted a smaller scale figure. I only had about 1 1/2 hours there so there are a few rough spots that I didn't have time to "clean up," but it sure was a lot of fun.

WOW Alexandra, this is truly impressive. So fresh and bold - you paint with such confidence, it really shows.

You've inspired me to go find some life painting opportunities in my area. I'd love to be able to do what you are showing us with this piece.

David

Wow, this looks like allot of fun. It's so free flowing but solidly expressed. I love it.
