Studio work: In The Mood For Progress

I brushed on some varnish to seal the drawing, although it is not the most ideal way to treat a surface...Leaving it to dry out and will return to it.

Painting week2

Something from class that I am actually really enjoying

My husband came up with the new atmospheric background idea, the set up in reality was pretty blend.

Still in progress

Small Oil Study

Something from school recently. Of course there is no magic in painting, just have to take time to figure things out.

Academic Stuff

I know this is kind "straight nude male figure with table lamp and cactus" is really boring. However I am enjoying figuring out the warm and cool light coming from two different sources, using limited palette. Academic training is not as exciting as being able to created your own composition, but it is the corner stone of painting technique and foundation. Thumb up!
