  1. What great portraits. It looks like a fun class -- great spirit. You probably bring that out in people with
    your humour and talent.

    Take care,

    Barbara

  3. Wonderful post!! I like how you show the artist, model, reference material and finished work. Everyone appears to be proud of their work....an excellent accomplishment.

  4. Thanks for sharing. What great portraits. Loved seeing what I presume were the pairs of artists and sitters. Very fun.

  5. Barbara, I tell my students that it took me 50+ years to get where I am today and that it will most probably take them 50 + 50+ years for them to even approach my level of artistic competence. These are all the remaining students out of the 125 that came to the first day of my two classes. Some people are just plain optimistic!

  10. It was a great class. So sorry to miss the last day. The portrait part of the class was by far the most fun, followed by the shoes.

  12. Marisol's is definitely by far my favorite as well!! (Girl in green dress). She accomplished such a whimsical style while still capturing the likeness of the subject...Love it!
