Liberace the Portrait Painter - a workshop review.

[Mike McCarty]

We thought a fella with a beard busy with his camera could have been Mike McCarty so I took a number of pictures of a stranger...

Beth,

I can't believe you missed me. Mustache, hat, no beard.

Dang! I told you it was him Holly... she kept saying you were the model with the loin cloth on....



I'll post the finished later.

The change of pallettes must be pretty cool, giving you the option to see what works best for you. I am sooooo jealous. Sigh.

I wish a big shot painter would give workshops from 12-3am....

Jimmie you need to take a vacation or wait until your daughter is as old as mine Not a help is it!


Well I just felt the example of the Italian model was not doing justice for Rob's palette. Thus for two reasons; one, so I don't forget what I learned while going back to my commissions and two, to hopefully give you a better idea of color, I did a sketch of the other model from a reference photo.

I missed a lot of the little color details this way, but still loved this model so I will take this to completion. I hope you can see something better. Sorry if there is glare.

This is about 2.5 hours on linen, 16 x 20.

I'll also attach the photo for Holly.

Thanks Beth for posting the drawing.

Jimmie have you tried videos from the library? Whenever I'm lucky enough to receive a new one it's soo exciting!

Sorry to get off topic, but years ago I remember seeing an art instruction video rental service. They had hundreds of titles/artists and they came in the mail - then you returned them.
