We endured the tropical heat (upper 90's) and painted away. Armed with palette knives, we captured the sunlight upon our beautiful model, Susanna. I was amazed at how quickly students got used to working with the palette knives and saw their purpose in working with clean color. We learned that "it's easier to tame a wild horse than bring a dead one back to life!"
Indoors we cooled off and painted Drew, our afternoon model. The students focused on form, composition, and achieving a likeness not through the superficial features, but through recognizing the anatomical structure and rhythm particular to Drew.
It was an intense, fun week that zipped by too fast, but we were fast friends. Enjoy the pics!
