And More About The Saper Workshop
One more great Saper workshop! No matter how many workshops I've taken from Chris from 2003 to 2008, I always leave as a better painter. Her method of showing students the differences between painting from photos and life have always been a part of her teaching strategy. This workshop was no different. AHA! moments were experienced by all, including Fil, our Hopi Indian model, an art student at a nearby college.
Chris' explanations of photo value compression and distortion were especially clear and helpful.
The Mountain Artist Guild people were warm and friendly and the facility neat, comfortable and attractive. As a first time visitor to Prescott, it was a thoroughly delightful experience.

So glad you went, Patty! Your painting came out very well, and it sounds like it was a great workshop to have attended.
And that picture of you with the model is so "Patty" (that is, fun and friendly)!

So your backdrop there looks a LOT like "Whitaker Green" - was that intentional, and if so, where did you find it!
Also, can you talk a bit about your model setup? Your lights look like they were positioned quite forward - or perhaps there was a series of lights?
Good strong shadows and highlights!
