Phil at Argos

Yes, it's another Tuesday night at the Argos Gallery. The usual crowd of 8 or 9 is present, along with the model, Phil.

Five-minute warmup drawings.  

Phil is in pretty good shape. I guess modeling is a good way to workout.

The face isn't a good likeness at all. But like Alan Iverson famously said, "It's practice. We talkin' 'bout practice!"

Plaza Dancer

New digital canvas. 

Plaza Dancer, 40 x 20

The digital painting started as an iPhone photo, taken on the Santa Fe plaza during Indian Market.

Canvas: Chair-Days

A combination of Southwestern style and Shakespearean quote:

Wast thou ordain'd, dear father, to lose thy youth in peace, and to achieve the silver livery of advised age. And, in thy reverence and thy chair-days, thus to die in ruffian battle?
King Henry VI, Part II - Young Clifford

Chair Days, 18 x 24

The gallery wrap edges contain the quote (left edge) and the quote attribution (right edge).
