And here's one student's setup for brushes, stuck in a foam block. Sorry it's blurry.

Keep up the great work!

Wow, this is really impressive, Julie! The color is now so rich, and there's such a great character in her face.

Thanx,, Janel and Alexandra. I'm learning a lot and am very grateful that I was able to attend Marvin's workshop. He is a very good teacher with such a well thought out methodology. I'd recommend his workshop to anyone, no matter how loose or tight a painter they are. I'm more of a "loose" painter compared to Marvin's style, but it doesn't matter, because I can use what he teaches. Many teachers stop at the point where they've shown you how to paint what is in front of your eyes. In Marvin's class, that is the starting point. He proceeds to show you how to plan and execute a painting by changing what is there if necessary to best communicate a three-dimensional reality.
Marvin's demonstration portrait is his best ever, I think. It looks like the model could hop off the canvas, yet he did not put in every detail. He'll be finishing it on Saturday and I'm hoping he'll okay me posting it here. He did some "magic" today with the background that was breath-taking in its effectiveness.

John, it was a pleasure meeting you today. Nice portfolio, too. Sorry we had to leave before seeing it all.
We have a few hours to complete our portraits tomorrow. This has been an exhilarating but exhausting two weeks. I'm tired but very happy with what I've been learning.
Here's the portrait so far. Getting an exact color balance is iffy, but this is fairly close, except it is actually slightly lighter than it appears when I post (at least on my home monitor).
