"Susie"

"Susie", oil on canvas, 9x12.

Susie was painted from life at Mainstreet Art Center yesterday, she posed for about 3 hours and I was trying to put down as much information as I could in that time frame. I wished I could have more time, but maybe not, sitting on the wooden bench for 3 hours were not that exciting - in fact it was borderline painful even though I thought I had enough natural padding there (the reason I chose that place was I wanted to paint her face slightly below her chin so I could paint her nostrils and the shadows of her eyes' pockets). But, in the end I was quite happy with it.

Thanks for visiting my blog....have a great day!
