Bruce,

I am not familiar with Larry Bovit's work, but I noticed the high chroma palette. Is this what he teaches or is this how you chose to paint the model?

I ask because I find the color choice unusual and interesting. Then again, it might just be how my monitor shows it. ;)

Hi Enzie
The colour choice was mine.. The light was very warm and bright. and I had a limited palette of Nupastel (hard) . If I painted Tom in oil I would tone down the intensity somewhat.. It was actually quite a warm day as well so he had a bit of a glow on..

THanks for stopping by :thumbsup:
