March Second Pose Conte

I didn't get over to AVAA to paint today. This one is from my last visit there. The watercolor version was posted earlier.

Cave Painting II

The second piece from the one minute warm up poses. I have done a bit more work on this one. I will post those images later.

Second Pose March

This is the watercolor version of one of the poses during my most recent session with the group.
I like doing the second painting in watercolor. I can let the watercolor do what it does and just focus on moving the brush around. I force myself to draw and paint the image with a large brush.

March Conte Pose

This was the first pose that was executed in Conte crayon. I usually paint from the back of the room and it provides me with an advantage. I'm blind as a bat so I really don't have to squint to blur out the clarity. Plus my eyesight forces me to focus on the light and values as opposed to the line.

Cave Painting

Before we start the main poses, the model will do a series of one minute poses to warm us up. I had a piece of prepared Masa paper. I tore it in half and did the warm up sketches of both pieces. I will keep you up to date on what I do with these. I didn't want to waste the images so I plan on working in watercolor to bring them more to life.
