Sir Anthony Teaches.. and other whatnot..

Tony Ryder teaching a portrait drawing demo at Artisan in Santa FE.  Crystal did a great job as the model.  Lots of hominids came to see!


I think Tony is using a metaphor here (above)..
 

For some reason all of the attending Tony Ryder School (tm) students  are not paying attention!  Toby is zoned (slightly), Mercia is wondering why I am taking a picture of everyone, Krista is wondering what that guy with the white-ish hair is doing, John is trying to control [sic] Marty and everyone else is taking judicious and copious notes!
 
Above my 4 hour allaprima of Cara.  I hope I will get another chance to work on this!


A recent cast drawing study..  about 40 hours.. will get better photo soon!



 
Dave, Dorothy in the background, Krista making egg-lets and the sun was just rising.. Taken at 7:14am on top of some Dale Ball trail in Santa Fe.  Look at those colors!  Now where is my diet pepsi ??!!!

You are so lucky to be in Anthony Ryder's workshop! I am envious!

The painting of Cara is beautiful! Amazing really for 4 hours!

totaBeautiful work ~ Randy O must be one of the most painted models in America and you have done an excellent job of capturing him.
I noted that you are using Artfix linen. Is it the L84C quadrouple-primed linen? If so , may I ask if you have experienced any problems with 'paint sliding off the canvas'? I found such a notation on Amien forum. Having just ordered a roll, I am wondering. Once again great work! Very inspiring.
