I was thinking today as I was struggling to paint a really lovely young girl from life, how much easier and stress free it would be simply to use a photo. Then I realized, that it was the challenge of figurative painting from life that made the work so exciting for me. It was like cliffhanging, a wrong turn there etc and it is all lost, except for the intense sweetness of nailing it!
