Plein Air Thursday

Yesterday’s plein air rendez-vous at Los Poblanos (a lavender and organic farm in Albuquerque) with several other plein air painters gave me a chance to practice painting on location. Like Van Gogh. This version has already been revised/repainted a couple of times. I have even more changes planned as soon as the oil paint dries a bit more.

Scott Again

One of the many poses provided by semi-regular model Scott at last week’s drawing session.


Q: Is it a pose or a break between poses?
A: It’s a pose. If it was a break he’d probably be wearing a robe.
Or maybe not.
