Christine

Four hours. 11" x 14". I am often afraid to paint the entire figure - hence all the portraits - but I really should be more confident of my abilities. I'll endeavor to tackle more of these from now on... they're actually pretty fun to do.

Tanya

Four hours. Yeah, I know... I've been painting a lot. I really should get out and soak up some sun.

Stephanie

Four hours. Purple hair calls for alizarin crimson to the rescue. My favorite part about doing this painting was placing the bright orange spot in her left eye where the light exits her iris.

Karen

Four hours. Translucent objects are so tough to paint.

Nicole

Three hours. Trying a "tiling" approach to painting... it's pretty fun!

Malo

Four hours. Painting with ambient lighting is really tough since you have to concentrate so much on keeping the overall value structure intact. Soft, diffused light makes for a beautiful effect though... !

Mark

Three hours.

Crystal

Two-and-a-half hours. This was done at the Kirkshop - we mostly paint friends and classmates there.

Keziah

Twenty-fives.

Lynda

Fives and twenty-fives.
