Marcia

This morning's work. Oil cropped to about 18 x 14.

Marcia sat really still, hard work. She has beautiful coloring.

Chris,
it is a treat to see beautiful work done in such sure, bold stokes. Looking forward to your next sketch.

Chris,

This is great. I love the energy and economy of your brushstrokes. This one is so vibrant with that yellow-green against the pink flesh tones.

Lovely clear skin-tones. She reminds me of a younger Betty White.

Thank you all very much.

We had about 2 1/2 hours or so. Carol Norton came to heckle us. We had fun.
