It was great to get back to our Thursday evening group. Travel and classes prevented the last two weeks of sessions. We had a friend of Jacqueline's model for us, Dan. I think she just met him once in her gallery studio at an art walk, and took one look at him and said 'you've got to model for us'. He was a heck of a nice man, and sat very still. Great beard!

I still need some work on this one. The ear is a little strange. I should have watched Andrea painting the ear! |

Adam's |

Jacqueline's painting. She just wrapped up a week workshop with Adam, and was very confident in her color choices . She just kept commenting how wonderful the workshop was. So if you are in the Kansas City area, and need a workshop for portraits or still life, Adam is offering classes! |

Adam looks relaxed! |

Kathy Kline. Poor Kathy lost her $500 pair of glasses that day. She was heart broken. She is saving money for a painting trip to Europe this summer, and didn't need that loss. |
 |
I was lucky to be standing there taking a picture when Adam was painting that eye lid. One stroke. He is so deliberate with each brush stroke. |
 |
A nice view of that ear. When Andrea painted the ear, it popped off the canvas. Amazing. |
 |
It was a small group last night, but we all enjoyed the session. |
 |
Dan's the man! |
 |
I worked on it a little more. Pick, pick, pick. |
As always, great post, Peggy! Super job on your painting, too--I think it might be my favorite one of yours yet!
ReplyDeleteAdam, read the posts below! This is really weird if you know Anna Rose Bain! I accidentally found her on a search and liked a post she wrote on Christanity and Nudes in Art.
DeleteWonderful portrait!
ReplyDeleteYou get to paint with Adam! How cool! :-)
ReplyDeleteAnna do you know Adam? Adam Clague? If you do.....I am blown away. I found you via a google search looking for Richard Schmid/ portraits.
