Marvin,
I think I figured out that the only way I can ever paint "painterly", such as in the effortless looking paintings by Philip De Laszlo, is to first paint detailed with the goal of understanding how to model the face. It'd be so cool to be able to look at a person and know exactly what to do to create the form (warm/cool, hard/soft edges, important/unimportant areas), instead of experimenting on the canvas. Ultimately, I'd like to be able to paint an area with what would take De Laszlo one stroke, instead of my 30 blended strokes. Thank you for the comments and pointers.
Mary,
Thank you, I'd always appreciate your critiques and input.
Kim,
Good point, thank you!
