Live models

Hi Pat,

Maybe he would be open to you bringing a model and maybe some of the other students would want to split the fee for the model. Perhaps others would want to learn to paint from a live model too. That might be something to discuss with him. Of course, he might have some reason why he doesn't want a live model around??? Let me know how it goes tonight.

Either way though, you could still probably learn a whole lot from him. Does he mainly paint from photographs? I would ask him how he expects you to learn to the best of your ability without learning to paint from a live model. It would be interesting to hear what he has to say about that, especially since he is such a succussfull portrait artist.

You could also consider taking the classes from him AND spending a few hours a week painting your neice and her friends if that's something that might work for you.

Good luck, I'll be curious to hear how this turns out,

Joan
