Cindy, Kim, David, Ilaria, Garth and Carol, you are such good painters, I'm honored to get these compliments.

About the three hour session... well, the idea is to get both speed and accuracy, you don't really get brownie points for speed itself. When I paint I concentrate on getting the values and the facial planes down, and then I start placing features. People always move slightly and I try to leave them a little wiggle room for as long as I can. I can't get very much really subtle work done in three hours, other than soften some edges, so I do things like bring huge brushes and wipe the canvas with a rag, etc. .

Cindy, are you asking me about color or about the actual palette I hold?
