T.W. with Grey, 16 x 12″ oil on linen
Being involved with painting the outdoor world as much as I am, I really value the opportunity to teach classes involving the human form. When I teach, I always paint along with the class.
This is a portrait head completed over about 12 hours from a favorite model. Since we have students new to color, I often choose to have black and grey tones in the composition so that they can key their flesh color mixes against simple values.
The model looks good against grey, anyway.
