6 hour long pose with model 

Kerry Dunn 

Workshop 

Stage 1

Stage 3

The painting is not complete but not having the model in front of me any longer;  I will not be doing much more, if I do, it will be suggesting the earring on her left ear.   I like to jot the model's name on my canvas - sometimes I get so engrossed in what I am doing I forget

and that is not a good thing!

Thank you to Frankie Johnson of Mainstreet Art Center 

and  

Kerry Dunn for this awesome workshop!

Thank you very much to all our models - Great Job!

My Hot Tomato Challenge

Ouch!

Opposite Tomato

Still Life

Oil

This really made my brain hurt LOL... I created and destroyed this so many times I ran out of orange paint.

The challenge was to take a painting you have and create its opposite, so darks become lights and lights become darks.  As well as opposite on the color wheel.  So my orange tomato had to become a purple tomato. my highlighs - darklights.... 

See what I mean?  Doesn't your brain hurt too?  Enjoy!
