Tony,

Very nice work...very alive, spirited. Skin tones remind me of Sargent's Capri or Venice figures. Did you make more studies of the same model, or just this one? How long was the session?
Visited your website. Congratulations on some very fine work. "The Don" is very impressive.

Carlos

I painted this girl from life at the school were I teach...

I would love to paint her again. She reminds me of the Sargent Capri models. I was going for that feel.

Thanks for the comments!

Best
Tony

Yes Tony, I like this. "Alive" is the right word.

"Yum" is another word. When will you come paint in our ( Nancy's ) open studio? I might have to bring my daughter to model that day :0
