I joined a group in Carmel, Ca. last week to paint and draw from a live model. This is a study I did in about 40 minutes. I'm really enjoying working from live models, after years of painting portrait commissions, mostly from photos I've taken. Not having to be concerned about an exact likeness and whether or not the person commissioning the portrait and I have the same vision, etc, is certainly freeing. I'm also determined to get out of my studio to do more plein aire landscape paintings.
