Final day.. 2.5 hour painting of my classmate Olivia and 4 hour painting of Sophie..

Exhausted but had a great day painting !

Had to "represent" with Gue, Hiroshi and Tomutsu painting with me!   really pleased with this painting.. Thank you O-wib-ee-ah for posing !

And a progression  ( had the camera along as usual at school!)

Olivia progression above.. about 1 hour.. 1.5 and 2.5 or so..

Study of Sophie,  Sophie is great and beautiful (too, as is Olivia!) but very challenging features for me!  I think working on this warmed me up for the Olivia painting above so I breezed through that and it was just a joy to paint! ( usually Asian woman are like..  Nooooo!)  (e.g., difficult, very subtle plane changes etc.,)..  hope you enjoy!

some drawings from clothed figure (including a "hair design" drawing lower left)..  great class lots of things I learned (and need to incorporate!)..  Thank you Glen!  ( below, with a little help from Master Orbik!)
