Moving Into Light

                                       nfs

                                                Started with a silver pen that somehow took me to this.   I also focused on letting the background help shape the figures.

Figure Medley

sold
    This is one model with four different poses.   The gestures were one minute so I painted later in my studio.   I like how this one stayed fresh and the limited palette feels calming.

Color Patch

                              Once in awhile things just work out.   New board that will take pencil and oil paint.  It is very smooth so I could  move quickly to keep the paint in flow and fresh.   Have to keep this for awhile to see if I can learn from it.
