Artist with Nude

I visited an artist's studio recently and shot a photo of him next to one of his paintings with my iPhone. Here's a quick sketch made from the iPhone reference.

Artist with Nude

A color version, 33x44, archival ink on watercolor paper.

Original sketch in the art studio, aka the kitchen counter.

Modified

One of the drawings from Tuesday night, corrected (to some degree) and modified in Photoshop.

Nice Poses

One of the two-minute warmup drawings.

Nice poses from this model.

Sketch to Oil

Digital oil, to be exact. 

Charcoal on newsprint, Corel Painter, and Photoshop.

Vigas and Shadows

While visiting the semi-famous church in Ranchos de Taos (just a few prayers south of Taos), locals told us that this church is the most photographed church in the world.

I have some doubts about how accurate that statement is, having seen the daily crowds of thousands at St. Peter's in Rome and St. Paul's in London. There were 3 or 4 tourists present at Ranchos de Taos.

Maybe I was there on a slow day.
