Passing Rows of Growing Stuff

Like I have been saying for a few posts, I like looking out the window of my car.  Passing rows of trees is really optical at 70 miles per hour.  The rows flash by.  I would love to tell you what's growing here, but I'm not sure.

Preparing to Dance

This is Katrina. A very talented model and artist.  I worked on this Monday at our model session.  I enjoyed lots of things about painting Katrina.  Increasing intensity in the flesh of the shadows was one and feeling a little freer with brush work.  The surface quality looks richer in person.  One thing I realized is that I never paint hands and have avoided doing so.  Not a good idea, so I must start looking and understanding. This creates a new item on a long list of personal creative to do's.

Carrie

Carrie modeled for the drawing group on Monday. The wonderful thing was she read to us for almost the entire time.  It was a great day.  I added this one to the DPW seated figure challenge this week.
