Beth: It will be a great class! I really look forward to meeting you all in person - I am sure you are all even more wonderful in person.

Will: I keep bonking the bar with my nose, but eventually I will get under it!

Jeanine: This model sat for me for about an hour while I took the photographs (sorry, not from life..yet) and then again for about an hour while I mixed the flesh palette and "looked". Unfortunately, I don't yet have a studio setup that would accomodate this sort of portrait from life. My wife and I are talking about using our family room as a dual-use room - I could put a model stand in a corner and paint from a live model there. All things in time.
