Pastel Class demo of Karen


This was fun. Four of us, plus Karen, braved the icy rain and treacherous streets to come to class today. Karen sat for me to do a portrait demonstration and two others took the opportunity to paint her while we had a model. This is two hours' work on a prepared board with fine pumice gel tinted with a quinacridone gold and a household brush, so the texture of the brushstrokes underneath show through quite a lot.
Now I'm working on the mother and son in oil. Will post something soon.
Stay warm, everyone!
