Live Model Long and Short pose Studies on Tuesday


After a whole week of Plein Air painting at Capitola and exhibition sales, only had Monday for managing home and personal stuff.

Rained a lot, it was necessary for California. We had Courtney as our long pose.  She arrived a little earlier,  dressed up very trendy with make-up, she looked very pretty in black and red outfit, including her bag.

I designed the painting on a16"x20" used panel.  She was a good model, and got back to the correct position after each break.  

I painted loosely the whole the whole figure, including her bag.  Three hours gone, time was up, and I realized that I painted her head a little bigger than it should be.  Then I decided not changing anything, just because my original brushes and design fit her funky style.  May do a new one next week.


Evening we had a new model Allen.  His short poses were very good, and his body shape seemed perfectly built for modelling.  Wish he could be our long pose model someday.
