We had a nice turn out for the summer figure workshop at the Halstead School. Unfortunately we got hit with a micro-burst an hour before class the first day and lost our power for almost the whole week. We opened up the windows to try to curb the heat and pulled back the blinds for light (our east facing classroom being less than ideal). Power came back ten minutes before class started Friday.
Anyway, I worked pretty large and don't want to take the time it would take to piece multiple scans together, so the full figure is a photo taken here at the home studio. It's far warmer than the actual painting, but I've also included a scan showing our model's head and shoulders that's a bit more accurate.
Beautiful. I don't know how you pulled it off without decent light, but you did a great job.
ReplyDeleteI struggle with my paintings photographing warm too.
