And now for the middle of the story..

Mostly these are in-the-works things except for the alla prima drawings and paintings ( below, dudes whatnot)..   Less and less do a post my underpantings [sic]..  just trying to get the word "underpant" back into the daily lexicon.

Above oil on masonite - about 2 hours .. I forgot her name: I am offically old!  (ok old-ish)

Cliff - my neighbor - the first image is after 20 or so minutes of add'l refinement (edges, light, form etc.,) of the original 20 minute study ( the below image).  This is a study for a painting..  Charcoal pencil on newsprint.

Dottie J - a new model for me - 20 or 40 minutes from life - charcoal pencil on newsprint and yes I didn't get her other eye built.

"Benjamin," speedy head study on the side of a wood panel in oil paint.

Sophie, a figure in progress - lots to do, lots broken but I am happy with the direction! and now - sleep!
