This guy was by far the funniest/best model I've had.
Alla prima/limited palette life study.

Bye-bye Studio

My beautiful studio space, aka: the second half of my bedroom. This space has granted me so many opportunities for fun and difficult projects. I'm going to miss 'er a lot :( 

Painted Patty

Time to paint Patty! She's about 1/3 done, here are a couple pictures of the process thus far. The top one is the most recent. Happy with how it's turning out so far, it's been a while since I've painted on stretched canvas and I'm enjoying catching up with this long lost friend!

Cardy Study

Two hour study of my patient friend (and fantabulous drummer) Cardy using the alla prima technique; a method that I've found to be incredibly challenging and enjoyable to learn.

My terrible camera gives this piece an inaccurate and disgusting sepia tone. Must acquire new camera!
